• Should have passed Pilot's technical examination (Specific) conducted by DGCA.

Completion of the course allows a pilot to act as pilot in command of the specific multiengine airplanes.

Shibani Air utilizes leading edge computer-based, DGCA-approved, single and multi engine flight simulators throughout the advanced training programs for effective development of pilot knowledge and skills.

For both basic and advanced instrument training we use the ATC Instrument Training System(PCATD), the industry's leading computer aviation training device. With the ATC system we are capable of doubling the effective training a student receives.

Our two computerized ATC flight simulator systems are located in special simulator rooms to provide an ideal environment for training.

Our training packages utilize flight training courses and material from Jeppesen-Sanderson, the industry leader in integrated flight training courses.

Shibani Air provides the opportunity for current cpl holders to get into the instructors shoes by offering instructor rating courses

Ever since planes started flying in the skies, aviation has been a glamorous vocation sought after by many, but achieved by only a few selected persons. Aeronautical engineering is a branch of engineering which deals with the design and development of vehicles in the air such as aircraft, helicopters, rockets, missiles etc and operations of those vehicles. In addition to air vehicles, Aeronautical engineering makes valuable contributions into the other industrial fields in the form of research, development and design of ground vehicles. Thus, aeronautical engineers have various opportunities to find a job in Defence,aircraft industries and automotive industry.

Graduates of aeronautical engineering work in all areas of the aircraft and airline industries. They also work in other exciting areas such as motor vehicle production and energy industry. In India, large transport and aviation companies employ aeronautical engineers, as do the smaller companies who produce components and services. Air Forces across the globe also employ aeronautical engineers.

Job Prospects and career options:

An Aeronautical Engineer can find employment in various Airlines in India and Abroad. Jobs are available with the national, international public and private airline services as well as aircraft manufacturing units. They can also join the Defence Services, Airport Authority of India, Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA), Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO), National Aeronautical Laboratory (NAL), Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), Civil Aviation Department (CAD) and also private Aviation Industries etc., as research Engineers / Maintenance Engineers.

The Indian aviation industry today is gradually undergoing changes- It is not just about core maintenance activity or flying operations but, a host of other allied services. Renowned aviation companies from overseas are seeking India as a joint venture destination to set up their allied business operations.

In this direction, the skills of an AME are being fast recognized as being just right to meet the service requirements here in allied fields like manufacturing, assembly, technical publications etc. Similarly, a CPL holder, along with his flying skills, can utilize the degree qualification in allied aviation activities, if he so desires at some point of time in his career.

It is therefore desirable that a student who pursues AME/CPL should also equip himself with parallel relevant qualification that can give his career a wider scope in the industry. Shibani Air is now offering a 3yr Bachelor degree program in B.Sc Aviation, in association with Osmania University.
