What does a CPL cost here?

Alchemist Aviation does not publish a fee. We will not print an estimate in its place — a made-up number attached to a real academy is exactly the kind of thing this platform exists to oppose.

Most Indian flying schools quote privately. That means the figure you are given has no public benchmark to check it against, which is the situation nearly every fee complaint on this platform begins in. Ask for the total in writing, and ask specifically what is not included.

See what every academy that does publish a fee charges — and why the figures on aggregator sites are usually wrong.

What this does and does not show. The sole objective of an AAIB investigation is the prevention of accidents and incidents, not to apportion blame or liability. Preliminary findings are not final and are liable to change. A raw count is also not a safety rate — an academy flying ten thousand hours a year is more exposed than one flying nine hundred, and the DGCA does not publish hours flown, so there is no denominator to divide by. Read each occurrence on its own terms. See every accident record we have compiled.

Alchemist Aviation — questions students ask

Is Alchemist Aviation DGCA approved?

Yes. Alchemist Aviation Pvt. Ltd is a DGCA-approved flying training organisation and was ranked 14 of 35 in the DGCA's April 2026 assessment, placing it in Category B.

What is Alchemist Aviation's DGCA ranking?

Alchemist Aviation is ranked 14 out of 35 ranked FTOs in the DGCA's ranking of flying training organizations published in April 2026, assessed as on 28.02.2026. That places it in Category B — mid-tier ranking in the april 2026 dgca assessment.

Where is Alchemist Aviation located?

Alchemist Aviation operates from Jamshedpur, Jharkhand.

How much does Alchemist Aviation cost?

Alchemist Aviation does not publish a fee figure, and we will not invent one. Most Indian flying schools quote privately, which means the number you are given has no public benchmark to check it against — and that is precisely the situation the fee complaints on this platform arise from. If you trained here, telling the next batch what you actually paid — including what was not in the original quote — is the single most useful thing you can post.

Has anyone reported a scam at Alchemist Aviation?

Nobody has posted a review of Alchemist Aviation on PILOT ORG yet, so there is nothing either way. An absence of reports is not an endorsement; it means no one has written in.

Has Alchemist Aviation had any accidents?

We have located 1 investigated occurrence involving Alchemist Aviation's training aircraft, in which 2 people died. Each one is listed on this page with its date, the aircraft, what was reported to have happened, and a link to the source — mostly the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau, India's statutory investigator. Read them in full rather than counting them: the AAIB's stated purpose is preventing accidents, not apportioning blame, a preliminary report is not a finding of fault, and a raw count is not a safety rate — India publishes no per-academy hours-flown figure to divide by.

Can I review Alchemist Aviation anonymously?

Yes. Your review is published under a generated handle such as Crosswind-5CD — your name, your email and your photo are never shown to the academy, to other students, or to search engines. Phone numbers and email addresses are stripped from the text automatically, and photos have their location and camera data removed in your browser before upload. You can delete your review permanently at any time.

Are you Alchemist Aviation?

If a review of your academy is factually wrong, names one of your staff, or publishes confidential information, tell us and a person will read it within 24 hours. You do not need an account.

We do not remove reviews on request alone — if we did, any academy could erase criticism of itself. We do act on the ones that are justified, and you can also ask to post a public reply.
