So this guide will also show how to become a commercial pilot step by step.

     2) Crack the  Interview .

     3) Qualify the  Medical Test.

    Generally the course duration is 15-18 months.

  Licenses to become a pilot :

  • Student Pilot License (SPL): First License needed till one earns 40-50 hours of flying and receives a Private Pilot License (PPL). SPL is valid for 24 months

What aircraft require a type rating is decided by the local aviation   authority.
