Commercial Pilot's License (CPL) / IR (APTL)

This is a 18 month* non-stop, full time residential training programme aiming to train the Pilot to the level of proficiency necessary to operate as a co-pilot on multi-pilot aeroplanes in commercial air transport and to obtain a CPL/IR license.

Commercial Pilot's License / Instrument Rating
(CPL/IR) with Frozen ATPL

Commercial Pilot’s License (CPL) is the next course for anyone who wish to
make flying an aircraft as their career. Once you obtain this license, you are
hereby recognised as professional pilot.

While a student  who graduated from a flying school with a CPL (Commercial Pilot Licence)
and IR (Instrumental Rating) (CPL+IR) will have a license
which known as the Frozen ATPL.

Frozen ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot License)

Once you received your CPL/IR license, you are now ranked as “Frozen ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot License)” for pilots who have limited flying experience outside of training to essentially be eligible to work as a First Officer in an airline for about 18 months time.

After specific aircraft type training is completed and subject to how many minimum hours requirement needs to be met. In today’s fast-growing airline companies, once you complete 1,500 hours of flight experience, your “frozen” status will be lifted and be able to apply for a full ATPL license. making you eligible for employment in any airline company and apply for promotion as Captain.

Commercial Pilot's License (CPL)

This license lets pilot operating an aircraft to be paid for their service. Once completed, you can fly an aircraft as the only pilot in pilot-on-command or a co-pilot to a multi-crew aircraft. Individuals must reach the age of 18 years of age to enrol in this program.

Instrument Flying

Obtaining additional training is required for those who wish to start a career as a commercial airline pilot with Instrument Flying as the first part of qualification, where pilots are able to fly and operate aircraft into cloud and of no ground visual.

Instrument Rating

This qualification refers to the pilot having full control of the flying aircraft and navigation under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) only – for airline pilots. This training consists of both written and practical exams respectively to assess pilots understanding of the theory and practical skill to conduct a safe IFR flight.
