Commercial Pilot Training


Commercial Pilot Training is a course of study used when learning to pilot an aircraft for commercial purposes i.e. for flying passenger aircrafts. The overall purpose of such pilot training is the acquisition and honing of basic airmanship skills. Commercial pilot training has found a lot of interest among people in recent years. This is because of the coming up of many airline services (especially low cost airlines) and growing globalization, economic liberalization and a boom in the aviation industry which has resulted in plenty of job opportunities in airline companies both within and outside India. With the highest number of airlines, the US is the most desired destination for most commercial pilots. Even UK, Australia and some European countries can also be happy hunting grounds for ambitious commercial pilots.

How to become a Commercial Pilot?

One can become a commercial pilot only after he has obtained a Commercial Pilot License (CPL). Commercial Pilot License authorizes the pilot to fly both passenger planes and cargo planes. A Commercial Pilot License may be obtained only after a Private Pilot License (PPL) has been acquired. To obtain a Commercial Pilots License, 250 hours of flying (including 60 hours for the PPL) is necessary. Besides that, one has to undergo a Medical Fitness Test and an examination.

PPL is acquired to a student only after a specific number of flying hours. Its training includes sixty hours of flying of which about fifteen hours are dual flights, that is accompanied by the flight instructor and at least 30 hours of solo flights apart from five hours of cross-country flying. This makes one eligible for the Private Pilot License exam. The prescribed age for appearing for this exam is 17 years and an educational qualification of 10+2 along with a Medical Fitness Certificate issued by the Armed Forces Central Medical Establishment (AFCME). Only after clearing this exam does one get a PPL.
