Understanding the Foundation: ATO, FTO, and MRO Explained

Approved Training Organisation (ATO)

An Approved Training Organisation (ATO) is a facility that is certified by regulatory authorities (like DGCA, EASA, or FAA) to provide aviation training. ATOs cater to both pilot training and ground training, offering a wide range of courses tailored to meet current aviation needs.

ATOs ensure structured learning, stringent safety protocols, and competency-based evaluations. They are crucial in creating skilled aviation professionals, including:

• Airline Transport Pilots (ATPL)
• Commercial Pilots (CPL)
• Flight Instructors
• Ground Engineers
• Crew Resource Managers

Flying Training Organisation (FTO)

A Flying Training Organisation (FTO) is a specialised institute dedicated to practical pilot training. It includes simulator sessions, in-aircraft training, and flight operations management. FTOs focus on:

• Flight handling techniques
• Navigational accuracy
• Emergency handling
• Night flying and cross-country operations

Our FTO programs offer state-of-the-art aircraft, certified instructors, and rigorous training aligned with national and global regulations.

Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul (MRO) Approvals
