The profile of people who are opting for this course is also a give away. Says Ravi Mishra, Head, Raisoni Aviation School, &#8220;Most of the students who enroll for the course come from middle-class backgrounds . These are boys and girls who have an average academic record, and a career in aviation seems to be the only way to a good life&#8221;<br \/>The booming aviation sector has triggered<br \/>a never before demand for air hostesses and flight pursers.<br \/>The innumerable academies are cashing in on this boom. With a fee structure, which is in the range of Rs. 1 lakh to Rs 1.5 lakh, the cost is steep. Despite this, there is no dearth of students . With a catchment area, which covers the smaller cities of Madhya Pradesh, and Vidarbha, there is a long line of aspirants waiting to enroll.<br \/>However, highflying dreams can come crashing down if you are not considered worth it.
