Training costs

What pilot training actually costs

Fee ranges taken from the flying schools listed on Epilot — not estimates. Where schools quote a band, we show the band. Every figure links back to the school it came from.

We're still collecting confirmed fees

6 schools are listed, but none has confirmed its course fees with us yet. Every number on this page is taken from a school's own quote — so rather than publish estimates that could cost you lakhs to act on, it stays empty until we have real figures.

The checklist below applies whatever you end up paying.

Before you pay anyone

  • Check the school's approval is current — not just that it was approved once.
  • Ask how many aircraft are actually flying, and the average hours a student gets per month.
  • Get the fee in writing, itemised: what's included, what's extra, and the per-hour rate beyond the syllabus.
  • Pay in stages against milestones. Never pay the full course fee upfront.
  • Pay the school directly — not an agent's personal account.

Epilot never handles your tuition. We publish what training costs and help you prepare your documents — you pay the school directly.
