India & Indonesia – Indian aviation training provider MH Cockpit has entered a strategic collaboration with PT Mitra Aviasi Perkasa (PERKASA), operator of Indonesia’s Perkasa Flight School, to create a pathway for students from India to undertake professional flight training in Indonesia. The agreement adds Indonesia to MH Cockpit’s international flight-training network and provides Perkasa with a further channel for recruiting international cadets.
- Perkasa Flight School currently reports a 19-aircraft training fleet comprising 13 Piper Warrior single-engine aircraft, three Cessna 172s and three Piper Seneca multi-engine aircraft. Its synthetic training infrastructure also includes two Redbird motion-based simulators.
- Under the collaboration, MH Cockpit will use its student network and aviation education activities in India to support candidates pursuing professional flying training through Perkasa in Indonesia.
- Perkasa operates under Indonesian Pilot School Certificate PSC 141-017 and was established in 2012, beginning flight training operations in 2013. Indonesia’s civil aircraft records identify PT Mitra Aviasi Perkasa as an approved PSC 141 operator.
- The flight school operates training bases at Tunggul Wulung Airport in Cilacap, Nusawiru Airport in Pangandaran and Jenderal Ahmad Yani Airport in Semarang. Its ab-initio program is structured for completion in approximately 14 to 16 months and operates with a company-reported aircraft-to-cadet ratio of approximately 1:5.
- Perkasa’s pilot training portfolio includes Private Pilot Licence, Commercial Pilot Licence with single- or multi-engine Instrument Rating, Multi-Engine Rating, ATPL theoretical knowledge, Flight Instructor and pilot refresher training. The school states that it has previously trained students from 14 nationalities, including India.
- MH Cockpit already markets CPL pathways that combine ground-school preparation in India with flying opportunities through partner academies in India and overseas. Its published CPL guidance notes that Indian candidates ultimately require DGCA examinations, prescribed flight experience and licensing documentation for an Indian CPL.
