Below is a clear easy to follow explanation of the subjects you ll study in a private pilot licence course or private pilot license course.
In this course you'll cover theoretical and practical topics to be a competent pilot. Key subjects usually include:
Air Law - Rules and regulations that pilots must follow in India (DGCA norms aviation law,airspace).
Meteorology - Weather systems clouds wind pressure and how weather affects flying.
Navigation - How to chart a course use maps instruments GPS drift correction.
Aircraft General Knowledge - Parts of the aircraft engines systems (fuel electrical hydraulics).
Principles of Flight - Aerodynamics lift drag weight stability how flight works.
Human Performance & Limitations - Pilot physiology effects of altitude fatigue stress.
Communication / Radio Telephony - Radio procedures phraseology communication with ATC (air traffic control).
The classroom subjects are matched with hands on flight training:
Dual flight hours with an instructor: you'll learn takeoffs landings pattern work emergency procedures.
Solo flight hours: once you're ready you'll fly on your own to build confidence and skills.
Navigation flights: you'll fly cross country trips using what you learned in navigation and meteorology in real conditions.
Simulator sessions (if available): practice instrument flying emergency scenarios and procedures safely before doing them in real aircraft.
Taken together these theoretical and practical subjects ensure you gain a well rounded training in both knowledge and experience. Without understanding weather navigation laws and aircraft mechanics safe flying is impossible.
These subjects are generally regulated by the DGCA in India and form the backbone of the private pilot licence course / private pilot license course curriculum.
