How to become a commercial pilot

Basically, there are 3 main ways to become a pilot. You can go through the route auto sponsor, sponsor of cadets or Government sponsor airline from the military, air ambulance, wings of police and etc.. You can start his lessons on flights to 17 all the way up to as old as you want if you just want to fly for leisure. But I am sure that most of you would love to be a pilot as a life long career instead of entertainment. To do so, should you register in a school of flight that gives you up to a commercial pilot's licence.

Once you start training, you have to apply for a student pilot's licence. Depending on what country occupy your flight, will fly up generally 50 hours in a single engine to obtain their private pilot (PPL) license. With a PPL, you can only fly small aircraft and can bring people up to the sky but you may not charge any money. Basically with a PPL, the intention is to fly for leisure. To fly and win life after his PPL will be take to a commercial pilot (CPL) license. In Asia, to enter the airline, need a CPL with 165 hours on a single engine, 35 hours on an airplane engine multiple with a total of 200 hours. In addition, need to have an instrument rating and complete all soil examinations to obtain a Frozen Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL). I know that all these alien sounds of jargon to you, but I will explain in more detail in my future post as only want to keep it simple for now on how to become a pilot.

Auto route - sponsor if you choose this route, will pay its own training flight (which cost a bomb) without any guarantee of work once he graduated. Between 3, this route is considered to be very risky. However, if you think, if you're studying for a diploma of degree from University or any employer guarantee you a job. There is no age limit if you want to do I sponsor the shape.

Path to sponsor airline - this is the best way, since it is not necessary to pay a single cent and guarantees you a job with that particular airline after graduating. To return the enormous cost invested in it by the airline, are normally bound between 7 to 15 years. In accordance with Cathay pacific, its total cost of your cadet pilot is 1 million HKD fresco. It was not a small amount of money. Most carriers have an age limit of between 26-30.For example, Malaysia Airlines has an age limit of 26 while Air Asia at 28.

Government/military - for those of you who like to fly quickly and feel the adrenaline as the flight of aircraft speeds faster than the speed of sound, you will need to apply with the air force, which is usually paid by the Government. Although it is a common belief that those who are very good will will select fly warplanes, some will be selected for transport aircraft fly or helicopter. For non-military, can serve the air ambulance unit wing air police, search and rescue and etc.. Most air force pilots do not stay with the Government for life as most commercial airlines will unite once your contract is up. Singapore, air force Singapore (SAF) retirement age is 45 and most will join Singapore Airlines thereafter.
