JOB AS AIRLINE PILOT
CPL REQUIREMENTS:
Class 1/ Class 2 Medical:
Clipair has D.G.C.A. approved doctors on its panel for the purpose of class 2 medical certification. However, the final standard for issue of CPL is Class 1 medical. This is presently being conducted by the Indian Air Force establishments at New Delhi, Bangalore and Johrat. The requirement to secure an appointment for Class 1 medical is successful completion of class 2 medicals. It is strongly recommended that class 1 Medical fitness be ensured before undertaking flight training.
Medical examinations are based on the following requirements:
1. Physical and mental
2. Visual and colour perception
3. Hearing.

JOB AS AIRLINE PILOT

On joining an airline a CPL holder would be inducted on Boeing/ Airbus/ ATR airplanes as per the company policy. India is the only country to induct a CPL holder with min / no jet experience as a first officer on the big Jets. Airline standards are high and hence there is no room for failures. Flight safety is of prime importance and company procedures and policies are strictly adhered to. On initial induction in an airline the trainee undergoes the courses prescribed by DGCA. The airline conducts an extensive training course on simulators and aircraft to obtain the required endorsement on your license. The trainee has to sign a bond with the airline for a specific number of years of service with the airline. The standard flow on joining an airline is as under:

¬  

Joins airline and signs the bond. The company may demand a part of the training cost upfront. The trainee is paid a stipend till he is released as a first officer. Normal duration from the time the trainee joins the company to release is six months depending on individual performance.

 
¬  

The training course for type endorsement would typically consist of Classroom training, Simulator training & aircraft training.

¬  

On successful completion of his type endorsement the pilot is released to fly on line as a first officer and starts to draw a handsome
salary.

 
¬  

A pilot has to demonstrate his proficiency every six months and this is a continous process all throughout his/her career.

¬  

Every co pilot is a prospective captain and the ultimate goal for a pilot is to attain ATPL & command the big jets.

The commercial interest of the airline has to be understood and flight must be conducted in a manner of keeping up team spirit to the highest standards. Due respect must to be given to all those working towards the success of the flight. No airline operation is a one man show. The RHS is the learning place for a successful commander. Personal egos should be left outside the flight deck and the aircraft flown as per company policies. Any reservations regarding company policies should to be addressed to the department in charge through proper procedural channels.
