Frequently Asked Questions

Ans:-

Flight academies in India offer many training courses for students who want to fly. You can start with a Student Pilot License (SPL), where you learn basics before real solo flying. Next is a Private Pilot License (PPL) to fly for pleasure or personal work. Then there is Commercial Pilot License (CPL) which trains you to be a professional pilot. Some schools also help you prepare for Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL) which is needed for airline captains.

Flight academies also include ground school lessons on aviation theory and flight simulator classes for safe practice. These help develop your skills before real flight hours.

Expanse of flight training

Flight training can be expensive. Commercial pilot courses may cost a lot because of fuel, aircraft maintenance, and instructor fees. For example, basic licenses may cost several lakhs of rupees. However, training in India is usually cheaper than in many other countries. Many academies help with guidance on financing, education loans or scholarships to reduce stress.

Duration of Course by Licence Type

  • Student Pilot Licence (SPL)
    Duration: 1–2 months
    Includes basic ground classes and medical clearance.
     
  • Private Pilot Licence (PPL)
    Duration: 6–12 months
    Includes ground training, exams and required flight hours.
     
  • Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL)
    Duration: 12–18 months
    Includes ground classes, DGCA exams and 200 flying hours.
     
  • Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL)
    Duration: 6–12 months (theory only)
    Flying hours are gained separately while working as a pilot.

Medical fitness 

  • Medical fitness is required before and during pilot training
  • DGCA Class 2 Medical is needed to start flying lessons
  • DGCA Class 1 Medical is mandatory to obtain a Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL)
  • Good physical and mental health is important for safe flying operations

supports after training

Many academies offer career support, like interview tips, airline prep and guidance for license conversion if you train abroad. Still, getting a job depends on your skill, airline demand and experience. The aviation industry in India is growing, so pilots are needed  but competition is real.

 Training quality in india

Many flight academies follow DGCA rules which focus on safety and proper training. Most have experienced instructors and real flying exposure. But quality may vary between academies, so always check reviews, training facilities and approvals before choosing. Good planning leads to better learning and more confidence in a pilot career.
