Hi im 26 yrs old guy livin in london. and love aircrafts. I want to become a commercial pilot. but not sure is my age right for that or am I too old to learn flying? And I have done my bachelors degree in accounts and management. So would it be ok or would I need any other qualifications? And where can I get the training or course? And how much it would cost me? please help if u know about this thing...
Thanks a lot.

I started flying when I was in my late 30s (I'm almost 46 now) so being 26 is certainly not too old at all!!
Before you can get your commercial license, you need to get your private pilot's licence, instrument rating, and then commercial and ATP licenses. Contact your local flying school; they can give you more information about this.

Are you planning on education in India or someplace else? in case you'll prepare interior the U. S. you'll require an wide history examine, a minimum of a third type medical (the chinese I educated were appeared at with the help of their united states of america, and also you purely want a third type to take any checkride, even although a minimum of a 2d type will be necessary to workout the privledges of a commercial pilots license. you should be 18 years of age and take care of to ascertain and write english. (which i assume out of your placed up that you'll be able to.) you'll want to acquire a private pilot certificate right here, or maybe with the very shown actuality that no longer required, you'll want an device score. After that you would probably recieve a multiengine commercial certificate. those ratings and certificate will fee you round $50,000 money interior the U. S.. also, reckoning on the position you intend to artwork, a 4 12 months college degree would properly be required.

join the RAF & learn to fly large cargo planes. those pilots have the best chances of being hired by the airlines as a commercial pilot. otherwise, you have to learn to fly small planes & work your way up to handling larger aircraft, which could frankly take years with all the hours required.
