How to become Pilot

Decide where you want to study

Where are many different ways to start your Pilot career, such as training in the military or through a university degree program. Nevertheless, the fastest and the most effective way is to study at aviation training centre.

Find out if you are eligible

Before signing on any kind of pilot training, you should look into obtaining your initial Class 1 or 2 Medical, which is necessary for anyone wishing to train for a commercial or airline transport pilot licence.

Apply for Flight School

Once you find a flight school that suits your needs, the next step is to apply. The application process itself varies by flight school. Generally this process is as simple as filling out a form and providing photo identification. You will probably be asked for a copy of a passport, High school diploma, English language proficiency, as well as any pilot certificates or pilot training documents you may already have. You should also know that acquiring a visa and background check can take some time.

Pass Candidate Skill Assessment Test

The skill assessments are used to identify those students who have the greatest abilities of completing the training programs successfully and starting their aviation carrier after the graduation. Once you have passed Candidate Skill Assessment Test, sign up the studies contract.

Learn, learn, learn...

If you want to become a private pilot – you should take Private Pilot License (PPL) course. But if your dream is to pursue aviation as a career, become a first officer and eventually move into the captain’s seat – start with CPL(A) Modular Program or Integrated Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL) Training Program.

Both programs will consist of theoretical training, practical training and CAA examination. After CPL(A) or ATPL(A) programs, you will obtain CPL(A)/IR/ME + ATPL theory (ATPL Frozen) license. Once you have your ATPL license, you will need to improve your basic instrument and general flying skills. That‘s why you need Type Rating, which is simply certification specifically to fly that particular type of airplane. After this long but exciting process, you can start looking for a pilot job!
