They say
that the sky is no limit if you want to achieve your goal. But what if you took
this in its literal sense and wish to rule the skies? Are you ready to embrace
the skies, duel with the mountains and descend down to earth with pride? Do you
want to be an Air warrior?
If your
answer for the above questions is a resounding “Yes”, then gear up for a career
in the Indian Air Force! Being an Air Force officer makes you understand the
essence of hard work, the importance of confronting stressful situations and
the gravity behind assuming responsibilities. While choosing this career
definitely does not enfold a bed full of roses, but that of thorns, you have to
learn to see the sweetness of the roses in the pricks that you get from the
thorns. You will first make your baby steps into the world of Air Force as a flying
officer, and then, will rise up the ladder to the position of an Air Marshall.
If you have a voracious appetite for adventure, then pull up your socks to be
besieged with varied emotions! IAF embraces the fortitude of adventure and they
comb all spheres of life like the Himalayas, oceans, forests or caves. So be it
terrestrial, aqua or aero sports, there is no dearth from having your heart
beating or pulse racing.
Pilot
Aptitude Battery Test:
However, to
get into this stellar universe, one has to attend a test named PilotAptitude Battery Test, PABT. This test, in more ways than one, signals a
life changing event in your life as it can be attempted only once with no scope
for retries. This is because from the long history offered by various wars, it
has been found that anyone who does not have that innate attitude, personality
and ability to become a pilot can never be trained for it. In times of colossal
threat, the true caliber of a person comes forth and only someone who can think
like a true-blue pilot is capable of becoming one.
This test is a culmination
of written and machine tests, and this pattern is universally accepted
throughout the world. In India, this
test is programmed by scientists of DRDO (Defense Research and Development
Organization) to check the mindset, presence of mind and muscular coordination
of every candidate.
Coaching Centers:
As mentioned
before, since the test can be attempted only once in your lifetime, the
emphasis placed on entering the best coaching centre is imperative. Therefore,
the coaching centre must be very popular among all the aspirants. This coaching
centre should have produced many successful candidates and should pride itself
on its hands on approach towards its training. The training should be intensive
with experts or ex-air force officers serving the faculty. They should be able
to spot the strengths and weaknesses of each individual and give enough room
for improvement. Their mock tests should make the individual more self
confident and boost their morale to face the real challenge. The infrastructure
should be high-tech and meet the rigors of the exam. Lastly, the rates should
be affordable.
So get set
and prepare yourself for a majestic life in the skies!
