Flying an aircraft is no mean
task. It requires extensive training – both practical and theoretical. Lately,
flying an aircraft has been considered as that for the adventurous and courageous
types and has generated a lot of interest. This has resulted in mushrooming of pilot
training institutes all over
India.
Pilot Training Institutes train
an individual on the various skills required to fly an aircraft. It teaches a
pilot the process of flying an aircraft through the air with proper direction
and control. It also teaches the students to understand the weather forecasts.
A qualified pilot is supposed to be an expert in leading his crew and the
passengers even in trying circumstances and a leader par excellence. Besides
academic qualifications, a commercial pilot should have a sound mind in a
healthy body, lot of courage, determination and self-confidence. There are
quite a good number of flying schools in
India that are recognized by the Directorate
General of Civil Aviation and provide excellent training to individuals
aspiring to become pilots.
One such pilot training institute
is
ChimesAviationAcademy,
which boasts of providing pilot training on Cessna 172 and is also one of the
best aviation academies in the country. Cessna 172 is one of the most popular
flight training aircraft in the world. Beating the other aircrafts hands down,
a Cessna plane has stood testament to time and held its ground as one of the
most dependable and user friendly airplane in the industry.
This has made
ChimesAviationAcademy as the breeding
ground for commercial pilots.
Benefits of Pilot Training Institutes
The primary benefit of these pilot training institutes is that it helps the
aspirant obtain a Commercial Pilot License. Commercial Pilot License authorizes
the pilot to fly both passenger planes and cargo planes. Thus, these pilot
training institutes enable commercial pilot to be well aware of his
responsibilities which include mastery and control over the equipments and
machines he handles, the ability to chart out flight timings and schedules and
above all the dexterity and mental strength to land an aircraft to safety. With
the opening up of the private sector for airline operations, the opportunities
for commercial pilots have amplified by leaps and bounds leading to increase in
the popularity of commercial pilot training courses in
India.
Pilot training institutes also
train the pilots to fly in international skies. With globalization, economic liberalization
and a boom in the aviation industry, commercial pilots have got plenty of job
opportunities in airline companies both within and outside
India. However,
a commercial pilot needs to have a certificate for flying in the country he
chooses. With the highest number of airlines, the
US is the most desired destination
for most commercial pilots. Even
UK,
Australia
and some European countries can also be happy hunting grounds for ambitious
commercial pilots.
To conclude, the boom in the
aviation sector and further opening up of the economy, these pilot training
institutes are here to stay. It would not be a surprise if in near future, we
see opening up of more top grade training institutes like
ChimesAviationAcademy. Thus, average
pilot training institutes should buckle up in order to compete with
ChimesAviationAcademy type pilot
training institutes as more competition is bound to come.
