Aviation

For getting a job in airline you will have to go through the selection procedure of the airline. It comprises of Technical Exam, GD, PI, Simulator check and Medicals. For becoming a commercial pilot, there is a specific eligibility criteria, which you should first be aware of. This is decided on what subjects have you taken in class 12th. It requires 50% marks in PCM to be a pilot. And, even if you have not opted for the same, then you can appear separately for these subjects and become eligible. Further, you should be aware that you are medically fit to be a pilot, so I would suggest you to visithttp://www.dgca.nic.in/medical/medical-ind.htmandgototheclass 2nd examiners tab to find out doctors who will examine you for initial fitness. You can visit any doctorate from the list as per your convenience. Once you are done with Class 2nd medical, find out a suitable flying club for you as per your convenience. You can fly in India or abroad. I would suggest you fly in India. Besides finding the club, be aware that you will have to appear for:
1. Air Navigation
2. Aviation Meteorology
3. Air Regulations
4. Aviation Technical
5. Aircraft Specific
6. Radio Telephony
Here, 1-5 are conducted by DGCA and 6 is conducted by WPC. Prepare for these subjects and appear, as exams are conducted every quarterly. For preparation, flying club will help you or there are private instructors available in metro cities as well. You will fly for 200Hrs + Clear DGCA and WPC exams + Clear Class 1st medical, then you shall get your CPL. The next license is ATPL, which you shall be able to apply for once. You will then have to probably fund or self-sponsor your type rating on whatever fleet you are selected in an airline. Then, you finally get a job as a pilot. I hope the process is well explained to you. CPL is an expensive affair. It might cost you around Rs.18-20 Lacs for flying + DGCA exams Rs.500/- each exam + Medicals for Rs.10, 000 + endorsements and license issue fees around Rs.25k + Type Rating around Rs.15 Lacs. So, decide wisely before you enter the field.

Hi Tripti,
Looks like your power is on the higher side. I am sharing information regarding eyesight have a close look.
Eyesight: Most airlines prefer normal vision or minimum uncorrected distant vision of 6/24 in each eye. Correctable to at least 6/6 in one eye and 6/9 in the other eye. If you are aspiring to work as a air-hostess and wear glasses, then switch over to contact lenses as early as possible. Power of your contact lenses should not exceed -2D (Minus Two Dioptre). Candidates who have undergone any eye surgery to improve their vision or to correct colour blindness, are not eligible to apply.
Hope this clears the doubt in your mind. Best of luck.

Hi,
Private flight schools are operated like other businesses, and there are no entrance exams. The only prerequisite is that you have money. There are sponsored flight schools. They are run by governments, military forces or airline companies. The competition is tough, and only the best of the qualified candidates will get through. They will be tested in mathematics, logic thinking, perception, memory, motoric skills and language skills. They may also undergo the medical and psychological test. After 10+2 with at least 55% (general category) or 50% (ST/SC/OBC) aggregate marks in physics and maths, you need admission directly in a flying club. The admission consists of three parts :
1. Written Examination:
One paper of two hours duration of physics, maths, general English and reasoning.
2. Pilot Aptitude Test (PAT):
This is also an exam on subjects like Air Navigation etc. Only successful candidates in PAT will move ahead for the final selection.
3. Interview
If you pass all these three steps successfully, you will be required to pay a fixed amount of money as commitment money along with your 10th and 12th mark sheet with a photograph of yours and birth certificate. After you pay that amount, you successfully secure your seat in the flying club.
