Hindustan Times Gurugram
|July 10, 2025
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has declared that it will rank the Flying Training Organisations (FTOs) based on safety standards of an FTO, its performance, compliance, assistance to students and operational aspects, with an aim to improve the safety and efficiency of pilot training in India.
The ranking system will come into effect from October 1 this year.
Stating the need for ranking FTOs, the DGCA, in its public notice dated July 8, said that ranking provides a comparative framework to assess the performance and quality of FTOs based on uniform and objective criteria, which promotes standardisation in training quality across institutions.
"Ranking will be published biannually, preferably on 1st Oct and 1st April of every year. Categorisation of FTO ranking will be based on the following overall score achieved by individual FTO," the DGCA stated.
