Federation of Indian Pilots 2.77

The idea of a pan India body of pilots to take up various academic, scientific, technical and welfare issues was envisaged in the year 1996 when a few visionary pilots got together to form the Federation of Indian Pilots.

Over the years the Federation of Indian Pilots has been very proactive in taking up issues vis a vis the regulatory authorities and has been holding Flight Safety Seminars to generate awareness within the pilot community.

To exercise the privileges of his/her Flying Licence a pilot needs to be medically fit. Hence, in 1999, the Federation of Indian Pilots launched a unique scheme to insure a line pilot's income in the eventuality of being declared Permanently Medically Unfit (PMU) and subsequently ending their flying career.
