Frequently asked questions

For becoming a captain, you will need to work your way through the ranks and gain experience. After getting the frozen Airline Transport Pilot Licence from a flying school, you need to have at least 1,500 hours of flying experience to become a captain of an aircraft. However, the flight time requirements vary for different employers.

The pilots are in charge of developing a flight plan that comprises the aircraft's performance, altitude, and weather conditions, inspecting the aircraft before each flight, and ensuring that cargo weight does not exceed aircraft restrictions. To guarantee a safe takeoff and landing, the pilot needs to communicate with air traffic control.

To become a pilot, you will need to work through different ranks and build up required flight time and experience which an employer requires. The actual flight time and experience requirements will depend on the organisation. You start off as a first officer and after gaining valuable experience, achieve the rank of aircraft captain.

Depending on the airline and individual performance, it might take between 4 to 20 years from joining to be promoted from First Officer to Captain. To be a Captain, the candidate must have at least 1,500 flight hours and an ATPL. To become Captain within 4 to 5 years, 900 flight hours are required annually.

You can start the training at the age of 18, but you'll be eligible to receive the ATPL at 21. The two-year modular route is also a good option which allows you to work while receiving the training. The trainee pilots receive Class 1 medical certificate and the training that proves crucial in their selection.
