Global Flight Training Group Skyborne and Indian Airline IndiGo Celebrate New Cadets in April 2024
Global pilot training group Skyborne Airline Academy, which operates pilot training bases in the United States and the United Kingdom, and IndiGo Airlines welcomed 14 new cadets to the IndiGo Cadet Pilot Programme during their Letter of Intent (LoI) ceremony in Gurgaon, India. Following a competitive application process, the successful cadets will commence the first phase of their flight training in the United States at the academy’s base in Florida before returning to India for their flight license conversion and type rating.
After successfully completing the programme, these graduates will go on to fly with India’s leading airline as A320 First Officers.
Sakshi Solanki, cadet in the IndiGo Cadet Pilot Programme with Skyborne, says: “While I was working at British Telecoms, I never felt fulfilled. That is when I decided to gather the courage to leave my job and begin studying maths and physics. I’m starting my career at 27, so age is not a deterrent to go after your dreams.”
Raj Ganatra, cadet in the IndiGo Cadet Pilot Programme with Skyborne, says: “I was determined to do my flight training in the US and a few of my friends were studying with Skyborne and only had good things to say. I still remember the day when I first travelled in an aircraft. I was sitting with my parents in the airport and I watched the pilots going by. I saw how they walked, their uniform, their lifestyle—that was the day I told my parents that I wanted to become a pilot.”
