What is Air Regulation?
Air regulations refer to the rules, standards, and guidelines that govern aircraft operations, airport management, and air traffic systems. These regulations, established by international and national authorities such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), play a crucial role in maintaining the safety, security, and efficiency of air transportation.
Covering a broad spectrum of aviation activities, air regulations set mandatory compliance requirements for pilot licensing, aircraft maintenance, air traffic control, and environmental protection. These rules apply to all aviation stakeholders, including airlines, airports, and individual pilots. Strict enforcement through inspections, audits, and penalties ensures adherence to safety protocols, minimizes risks, and helps prevent accidents, thereby ensuring a safe and reliable service for the public.
Frequently Asked Questions
The minimum age to begin pilot training is 17 for a Student Pilot License (SPL). To obtain a Commercial Pilot License (CPL), the minimum age is 18 years.
There is no minimum height requirement to become a pilot.
To become a pilot, the minimum educational qualification required is typically a 10+2 with Physics and Mathematics as subjects, usually with a minimum of 50% aggregate in these subjects; this means you need to complete 12th grade with these subjects to be eligible for pilot training.
To obtain a Commercial Pilot License (CPL) from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), a pilot must meet the following requirements: complete a required number of flight hours, pass theoretical examinations on aviation subjects, demonstrate proficiency in a flight test, possess a valid medical certificate (usually Class 1), have adequate English language proficiency, and meet the necessary educational qualifications, typically including 10+2 level schooling with science subjects

"Conversion flying" refers to the process of a pilot with a pilot license from one country undergoing additional flight training to convert that license to a license issued by another country's aviation authority, essentially allowing them to legally fly commercially in that new jurisdiction; this typically involves familiarization with local regulations, aircraft types, and airspace procedures, often requiring additional flight tests to demonstrate proficiency under the new standards.
For conversion flying in India, the essential flying requirement is a significant amount of cross-country flight experience as Pilot-in-Command (PIC), including a long cross-country flight with multiple landings at different aerodromes, along with night flying hours and often an Instrument Rating (IR) test to convert a foreign pilot license to a DGCA license; this typically involves demonstrating proficiency in both day and night flying conditions, with specific minimum hours required for each category depending on the license being converted.
The course duration is around 3-4 months.
On average, it takes 18 to 24 months to complete the required flying hours and obtain a CPL. The duration may vary due to factors like weather conditions, flight school availability, and individual progress.
The cost varies between ₹40 lakhs to ₹60 lakhs, depending on the flight school and location.
A DGCA Computer Number is a unique identification number that the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) issues to pilots and other aviation personnel in India. It is used for a variety of purposes, including taking exams, accessing resources, and maintaining records.
To generate a Computer Number, typically required documents include: a recent passport-sized photograph, signature, date of birth certificate, 10th standard marksheet and pass certificate, 12th standard marksheet and pass certificate, board verification certificates for both 10th and 12th, and sometimes a passport or Aadhaar card for identification purposes; all documents should be self-attested.
A BVC (Board Verification Certificate) is a document issued by a student's educational board, like CBSE or CISCE, to verify the authenticity of their 10th and 12th standard marksheets.
