Part 3 Don’t Join Orient Flights Aviation academy Kurnool Andra Pradesh . 12+ Months No flying. +actively stealing students money and forcefully keeping us the hostel August 2026

Hi guys Before we get into the update I need to address 1 thing that being it may seem like I’m spamming the sub with my updates, But in reality my posts are gaining traction within this flight school and actually making things more an inch, also it is to bring awareness to other potential students considering to join

Closing in a year since we Joined this flight school at Kurnool, we were excited to start this adventure little did we know we would be stuck in this hell hole, they assured us flying would start by November 2025 and well we’re close to November 2026 and there still seems no sign of flying yet they have the audacity to ask for Hostel and travel fees.

Stealing 25K a month,
As instated on my previous posts we’ve been paying 25K a month for practically nothing ( either sitting in the hostel or class self studying) 10K out of that 25K consists of travel expense going back and forth form the airport every day but the fact of the matter is we haven’t traveled to the airport not more than 4times in the whole year that too just to see what’s the status on the hangars construction, now that it’s been a year we have been asking the management to adjust that 10k over the course of the year into the next years hostel cycle as we haven’t traveled at all , but apparently the Chairman ( Chorman) has ordered that all student must pay the whole sum of 25K regardless of services availed,

Our chairman is a Billionaire form Kerala and you can look him up easily, how pathetic his existence must be to have that much money and not only cheat students who joined your institution but to also nickel and dime them for even that 10K a month, ( just as a fun fact whenever he visits our city office in Kurnool he takes a private jet and allegedly his 4 day visit alone he spends about 5-10 lakhs as he books out entire floors of the best hotel in town and sends his convoy of cars) there is a special place in hell for people like this and note u can’t shove your money up your ass when u enter Hell

They keep telling us flying in going to stat in x amount of days/weeks and the planes are coming Tommrow/day after but as days turn to weeks and weeks turn to months noting ever happens, fact of the matter is the hangar is still not approved by DGCA nor any of our planes with the same excuse of “ DGCA officials are coming this week “ going on for months at this point

Whenever we pressure them too much it’s the line “ u cause problems for the higher ups and they will cause problems for you” Thrown around as a threat, than of course there are those typical bad actors that keep kissing the higher ups asses (and maybe giving a few blowies) just for the hope of getting even more preferential treatment not realising his just cutting more holes into the Titanic hoping for a last minute life boat.

We want to take legal action but nothing can be done as we are too small and they are too big so all we can do is discourage future prospects of this flight school and not pay the fees for as long as possible

When we joined this institution they hand a long history as well as good rating and reviews, ( something tells me they are fake) it’s specifically Kurnool I wish I could say has this issue, but in reality Mysore ain’t any better as some people barely do 2 hours a month and most of the planes there are out of service, yet they advertise that they have 17+ planes in service in reality they only have 2-4 planes active In a given time and one of them is the Multi engine so it’s useless for newer students

Also for anyone at Orient Seeing This I am not shitting on you for no reason, if our flying we’re to start and it went fast and smooth you have my word I will make a positive post about this flight school
Meanwhile if any of us were harassed or threatened I will make more evidence which I hold, public and will call in media attention, I maybe not be a egotistical billionaire like our Chorman but I still have the resources to make things move

MacBook Pro a1989 logic board swap

Got a 13inch a1989 form 2018, used it as hell and it’s feeling old now, planning to get a new laptop but before that I’m interested in a logic board swap, I’ve heard it’s possible but how far does it go? Can any of the apple M logic boards be swapped in?

It’s been a thing since a few years and has been consistent across various iPad models, I only just thought of looking into it, basically if I put on a timer and play something on YouTube everything sounds fine initially but when the timer goes offf or I manually stop the countdown bam the sound of what’s playing changes characteristics

(Updated-Mid April 2025) Orient Flights Aviation Academy is Stealing 25000Rs a Month & is Ruining My Life

This is a Update to My previous post Regarding my bad experience with this flight school as there has been a few developments and to address a few questions form a lot of commentators.

Although I don't have solid evidence Apparently they have gotten wind of my post, (which was the intention of my original post) this is proved by the fact that offered to take us on a Hangar visit,

after all these months of us requesting to visit the hangar only now they are offering a visit which is odd

No not a Inauguration ceremony but just a simple hangar visit as the construction is not complete yet- which is insane as we Joined in August of 2025 marking a total of 8 months of Lies and deception.

I also possess information that all these delays are not only due to the Hanger Construction but also the fact that they are having Issues getting clearances to conduct flying which makes them issue 10X more scummy,

They charged us 18+1+3+3 Lakhs for a flying school without even a clearance to fly

im genuinely pissed and im damm sure this violates many consumer protection laws.

I would be slightly less pissed if we weren't wasting time here forced to pay 25K a month if it meant when flying would start 12 of us would have it done speedily, but that doesn't seem to be there case.

others issues

Classes:

I had paid 3L for CPL classes for this price is on par with other ground schools like Sahil Kurana, by this I mean id get standardized notes to aid me with the exams and in-depth classes.

but all we got is Some PPTs made by our instructors and Some SPL classes, and read off the book classes, not to forget most days we don't have any classes we report to office and study on our own,

This is not rub off personally on the Ground instructors as they seem to be helpful and knowledgeable with the subjects as well as the fact that they are also newly recruited into the fight school, with no higher ups to over see and guide them,

This spreads out to the whole Kurnool Branch which operates like a chicken with no head ( we had a useless centre head who also was fired so we don't have any center head anymore and also we do not have any CFI or CGI)

Racism:

I still hold my ground with preferential treatment given to Tamil students, when it comes to notices,punchuality,dress code, etc

and I still believe by the looks of this they will be given preferential flying time as they have been treated preferentially when it comes to everything else.

I don't wana start a North vs South thing nor ive had anything against anyone based on where they come form, I am against the fact that similarities are being exploited by bad actors to get a preferential treatment and a hand over others, and people in power who should know better are knowing or unknowingly being susceptible to said exploitation

Neither I care of people discussing their personal stuff in Tamil but it's Common Curtesy to discuss/plan things that would involve everyone in a common language. same thing applies to notices half of the damm notices are not communicated directly us, they say it to the Tamil students and they transmit it to the rest of us.

This was used against me a few times as none of the instructors directly told me about the increased 4 paper requirement nor any of the Tamil guys assigned to inform everyone told me about this I am not gonna blame malicious intent but it could be used with malicious intent. but why can't we have direct official communication regarding these matters still baffles me

I believe in the Traditional Teacher/Student Relationship especially in aviation because it reduces factors such as miscommunication, lack of communication and intentional or unintentional prefrencial treatment. I am strongly against the bro culture that is developing here. which can be attributed to the lack of Higher ups and overseers for the Kurnool Branch

I really am fedup with this flight school and can't reiterate the fact enough that do not join this place especially if they are sending u to Kurnool. They really operating like a Headless Chicken with ass over heals management.

I have also gotten a Dm on Reddit by someone who types very similarly to someone I know in this Institution, Threatening me leave this institution or else they will “Torture me”

Maybe I’m being picky or they might actually be threatening me

Anyways making it a public note of the things I’ve been trough since this post, I won’t be muscled to do anything and if anyone tries to “ torture me” I have my ways to deal with them

Also For those at orient, I’ll only delete my posts once flying for out batch Justly Begins, Until Than I’ll be paying Reddit to promote this post for every month of delay

Also fuck you we all have paid equal 18L and so we should be treated as equals.

Also as a warning if any of the management figures who I am and tries to fuck around with me. I am the customer to your employer. After a certain point I’ll bring media attention and publicly name names of people, with proof.

It’s very easy to manipulate and slander about someone who isn’t there to defend themselves, you fucking lying Manipulative piece of shit. I genuinely trusted you and considered you as a friend, it justifies and makes sense how u were treated by others in the past, everyone will some day realise

It’s not Peoples opinion which decides we go to Heaven or Hell
Is it for God who decides that, As God sees our every action trough every mask, you can fool people but u can’t fool God
