Becoming a pilot is a dream for many, but it requires a rigorous and well-structured training process.
In this article, we will explore the various steps necessary to obtain an ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot Licence).
- Understanding the Basic Requirements
The first step to becoming a pilot is understanding the necessary requirements.
To start a professional pilot career, an investment in training is required by attending either a modular or integrated ATPL course at an “Approved Training Organisation” (ATO), where you will obtain the flight licenses required by airlines to be hired as a professional pilot.
To begin a modular ATPL training course, the following requirements must be met:
• You must be at least 16 years old.
• You must have obtained a 1st Class Medical Certificate as prescribed by European regulations. - Choosing the Training Path
Asteraviation Flight Academy offers customized programs, which may include both theoretical and practical training.
Training opportunities vary, but it is important to choose a course that meets your needs and professional goals. - Practical Training
Asteraviation Flight Academy offers its cadets a modular ATPL course, meaning it is divided into consecutive modules. The modular course offers greater flexibility to meet the individual needs of each cadet. The integrated course, on the other hand, combines all the knowledge into a single intensive course. - Passing the License Exam
Once the theoretical and practical training is completed, it is necessary to pass theoretical exams and practical skill tests. These exams test the candidate’s theoretical and practical skills. - Ongoing Training and Updates
The aviation world is continuously evolving. Once you have obtained your pilot license, it is crucial to continue training and stay updated on new technologies and procedures.
Becoming a pilot requires commitment, dedication and adequate training.
The ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot Licence) pathway provided by Asteraviation Flight Academy will ensure, thanks to the experience and professionalism of the instructors and staff, a training program tailored to your needs, helping you perform at your best for success.
