To obtain your Commercial Pilot License, or CPL, you need approx. 100 hours as Pilot in Command (PIC).
To accumulate these hours you can fly in the Netherlands, at Rotor & Wings, or abroad. Whatever you choose, we support and if possible accommodate you in trying to find suitable assignments that lead to the valuable experience that you need.
The course exists of:
- PPL
- 100 hours PIC
- minimum of 30 hours CPL training
- thirteen theoretical subjects
The theory is a (mandatory) combination of online learning and classroom meetings. The books and exams are in English. You must have passed the theoretical exams before you take your practical exam.
Of course you can start the practical training before you've finished all of the theoretical exams. For a CPL you will need a medical class 1. You can take the CPL exam when you are aged 18 or over.
you need an Instrument Rating for your ATPL, but you can also obtain an IR on your PPL or CPL.
