FURTHER NOTES

• Skyborne has created a pricing structure that attempts to include as many requirements as possible. The
table above shows those items that are included and those that are not.

• Cadets should plan for subsistence and recreational expenses for the duration of the course.

• Cadets will receive a US FAA and Indian DGCA Commercial Pilot Licence with Instrument Rating.

• The programme price assumes that cadets have already cleared their DGCA commercial written exams. If
not, then Skyborne works with a training provider in India who can supply that training. Cadets wishing to
do this should budget for an additional US$3000 to complete that training.
