The process of obtaining a commercial pilot license involves training that includes both theoretical and practical components. The theoretical component covers topics such as Aerodynamics, Air regulations, Air navigation, meteorology, Aircraft systems, Aircraft performance and human factors in aviation. The practical component focuses on flight maneuvers, instrument flying techniques, basic aircraft control principles, and emergency procedures.
By successfully completing all of these components of CPL training, you will be able to demonstrate your proficiency in operating an aircraft safely in all types of conditions. With this qualification, you can pursue a career as a commercial airline pilot or work as an independent contractor for private companies or charter services.
A CPL will typically have no expiry date. However, you need a valid medical certificate and a valid rating to use it. A pilot’s ratings may be listed on the license, including the types of aircraft that can be flown (single-engine or multiengine), whether flight under instrument flight rules is allowed (instrument rating), and whether instructing and examining of trainee pilots can be done (instructor or examiner rating).
Requirements:
- Passed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry and Math.
- At least 17 years of age.
