    The Tribune
What this does and does not show. The sole objective of an AAIB investigation is the prevention of accidents and incidents, not to apportion blame or liability. Preliminary findings are not final and are liable to change. A raw count is also not a safety rate — an academy flying ten thousand hours a year is more exposed than one flying nine hundred, and the DGCA does not publish hours flown, so there is no denominator to divide by. Read each occurrence on its own terms. See every accident record we have compiled.

National Flying Training Institute — questions students ask

Is National Flying Training Institute DGCA approved?

Yes. National Flying Training Institute Pvt. Ltd is a DGCA-approved flying training organisation and was ranked 4 of 35 in the DGCA's April 2026 assessment, placing it in Category B.

What is National Flying Training Institute's DGCA ranking?

National Flying Training Institute is ranked 4 out of 35 ranked FTOs in the DGCA's ranking of flying training organizations published in April 2026, assessed as on 28.02.2026. That places it in Category B — mid-tier ranking in the april 2026 dgca assessment.

Where is National Flying Training Institute located?

National Flying Training Institute operates from Gondia, Maharashtra.

How much does National Flying Training Institute cost?

National Flying Training Institute publishes a CPL fee of ₹42 lakh+. That is the academy's own published figure, not our estimate — the source is linked on this page. It excludes taxes, accommodation and meals, so budget above it. Nobody has reviewed National Flying Training Institute here yet, so there is nothing to compare that published figure against.

Has anyone reported a scam at National Flying Training Institute?

Nobody has posted a review of National Flying Training Institute on PILOT ORG yet, so there is nothing either way. An absence of reports is not an endorsement; it means no one has written in.

Has National Flying Training Institute had any accidents?

We have located 1 investigated occurrence involving National Flying Training Institute's training aircraft, in which 2 people died. Each one is listed on this page with its date, the aircraft, what was reported to have happened, and a link to the source — mostly the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau, India's statutory investigator. Read them in full rather than counting them: the AAIB's stated purpose is preventing accidents, not apportioning blame, a preliminary report is not a finding of fault, and a raw count is not a safety rate — India publishes no per-academy hours-flown figure to divide by.

Can I review National Flying Training Institute anonymously?

Yes. Your review is published under a generated handle such as Crosswind-5CD — your name, your email and your photo are never shown to the academy, to other students, or to search engines. Phone numbers and email addresses are stripped from the text automatically, and photos have their location and camera data removed in your browser before upload. You can delete your review permanently at any time.

Are you National Flying Training Institute?

If a review of your academy is factually wrong, names one of your staff, or publishes confidential information, tell us and a person will read it within 24 hours. You do not need an account.

We do not remove reviews on request alone — if we did, any academy could erase criticism of itself. We do act on the ones that are justified, and you can also ask to post a public reply.
