The Flying Engineer interviewed the Chief Flying Instructors of four, well established and quality flying training institutes in the country. The aim of the interview is to allow the audience to better understand topics seldom talked about, in India: flying training, the qualities of an instructor, the general aviation scenario, and how the country’s aviation sector can improve. Although general Aviation is usually seen as the backbone of aviation in any country, it is an ailing segment in the country which needs to be made very accessible.
