TYPE RATING FOR INDIA DGCA LICENCE HOLDERS
Let’s get you Type rated and ready for Airline Employment at the best price.
In line with DGCA guidelines our Type rating course trains Indian licence holder with the competencies, knowledge, skills, and attitude required for airline employment. The minimum DGCA experience requirements to start the course are listed below.
We will train you, conduct your skills tests and provide you with all the DGCA documents needed to endorse your DGCA licence with an type rating.
The looming global shortage of competent airline crew means that most airlines are adopting an employment strategy that allows newly-qualified commercial pilots to join as First Officers. Whilst you have gained experience on piston or turboprop aeroplanes, you need to develop additional competencies to operate as a crewmember on the flight deck of an advanced, swept wing, multi pilot transport jet.
So how do you bridge the gap between single pilot light aircraft flying and the many additional competencies required to pass an airline selection process and achieve employment?
PTC Aviation has a comprehensive blended Type rating programme that focuses on all the competencies you will need to be successful.
