It is the first PG school in India to hold SIV courses in India. They are currently planning to hold their 10th SIV course in India.
During his early years of learning to fly Gurpreet went through a lot of struggles and saddening experiences with people claiming to be instructors. At this time Gurpreet made a promise to himself that he wouldn’t teach anyone until he has been Judged by his peers, so as to be competent on international level. He kept his promise and got BHPA instructor certification from UK. He continues to passionately work on making Indian pilots safer and better.
