Aviation

Hi Manish!
It is really courage that you wanna be the pilot. But, you seems confused about the course! See, first if all, you have to decide that what type of pilot you want to be? 1) Fighter pilot: then, you must to go with NDA (most preferred) or direct admission in IAF through career indianairforce.in
2)Commercial pilot: Dear! for this there is a separate academy (aviation academy) in which you can go after your 12th (70% or 75%) with some exceptional physical fitness (most preferred) but they are really costly ) OR you can go with B.Tech Aerospace or Aeronautics or Aeronautical Engineering from a prestigious university to get direct admission for pilot training.
Hope you finds this helpful Any query? Ask me anytime!
Good Luck!
