In India, the salary of a Commercial Pilot can vary widely depending on factors such as experience, the airline they work for, and their rank. 

On average, a newly licensed Commercial Pilot can expect to earn around INR 1.5 to INR 3 Lacs per month. However, experienced pilots with several years of flying experience, especially those working for major airlines, can earn between INR 5 Lacs to INR 7 Lacs per month or even higher.

Currently, there are no comprehensive online courses that cover the full spectrum of Aviation or Aircraft-related studies. While there are specialised programs and certification courses available online for specific areas like aviation management, piloting, and safety protocols, in-depth technical training such as Aircraft Maintenance Engineering (AME) or Aeronautical Engineering usually requires hands-on, practical training and cannot be fully pursued online.

No, students do not need a passport to join a Pilot Training course in India if they plan to complete their entire training within the country. However, a passport becomes essential if the course requires international flying hours or if the student plans to undergo training in foreign flying schools as part of their program. 

For training conducted exclusively within India, a passport is not mandatory for enrollment, but students must meet other eligibility criteria, including medical fitness and educational qualifications.

Yes, having a license is mandatory to work in many roles within the aviation sector, especially for positions that involve operating or maintaining aircraft. Professionals such as pilots, aircraft maintenance engineers (AME), and air traffic controllers must obtain licenses from regulatory bodies like the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in India. 

These licenses ensure that individuals meet the required safety and competency standards. However, for non-technical roles like cabin crew, ground staff, and airport management, a license may not be necessary, though relevant training and certification are often required.

Aircraft Engineering focuses on the technical aspects of designing, maintaining, and repairing aircraft, making it ideal for those interested in engineering and behind-the-scenes operations. 

On the other hand, Pilot Training is a professional course that leads to becoming a licensed pilot, offering a hands-on, high-paying, and adventurous career. 

While Pilot Training can be expensive and requires regular medical checks, it offers faster returns with high salaries. Aircraft Engineering, however, provides a stable career with opportunities in both the civil and defence sectors.
