Modular ATPL includes PPL, PIC, ATPL theory, Night VFR, IR, CPL and multi-engine.
Typically 14-18 months depending on exam performance and weather. The target is 700+ theory hours and 210-220+ flight hours.
Not in the first months. ICAO Level 4 is expected before the commercial stage. Improving English during training is recommended.
Class 1 for CPL, IR and ME. Class 2 is enough for PPL, PIC and NVFR.
Student houses are available in Samsun. Airport shuttles on flying days are complimentary.
No. You fly the extra hours the examiner sets, then sit a new check.
UAV-0 requires age 12. UAV-1 requires age 14.
ATPL packages start from around EUR 80,000. Personal payment plans are available. Request a current quote.
SEP(A) on a CPL(A) is valid for 2 years; IR(A) and ME(A) for 1 year. Plan a renewal flight before expiry.
Airline flying requires completing ATPL training at a flight school. Pilots who hold an ATPL can apply to airlines.
ATPL stands for Airline Transport Pilot Licence.
PPL usually takes 3-5 months, depending on study pace and flying availability.
PPL flight training is flown at Samsun Çarşamba International Airport.
A PPL is for private flying, not commercial air transport. Paid flying is outside this licence except where the rules allow a safety pilot role.
A PPL holder can fly their own aircraft for non-commercial purposes, within the aircraft weight and operating limits.
Flight training can start before the theory exams are finished. The exams must be passed before the check ride.
No. Night VFR must be completed before IR flight training starts.
No. A PIC flight requires at least 3 take-offs and landings in the previous 90 days. Otherwise a refresher of at least 1 hour comes first.
PIC flying starts after the EASA licence is converted to an SHGM licence. The school supports that conversion.
