Stages of ATPL Modular Training:

Trainings are delivered in packages/modules and consist of different phases.
These phases are:

Health Report:

In PPL training, which is the first stage of modular ATPL training, pilot candidates must obtain a medical report after registration until the theoretical training at the latest. The medical report is obtained from hospitals authorized by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation. The registrations of pilot candidates who cannot obtain a medical report due to health problems after registration are canceled free of charge. A 2nd class health certificate is sufficient for PPL(A), PIC and NVFR, which is the 1st stage of the training. Candidates are required to have a 1st class medical certificate before the commercial pilot certificate when they proceed to the 2nd stage. It is recommended by our flight school that candidates enrolled in the ATPL course obtain a 1st class medical certificate from the very beginning of the training. You can call our flight school to get information about health certificates.

English Language Proficiency:

Language proficiency certificate is not required for course registration in ATPL modular training program. Candidates who do not have English language proficiency can enroll in the English course until the 2nd stage of the training after enrolling in the training and can continue their training by passing the language proficiency exam before the commercial pilot training phase. Our flight school provides support to candidates who do not have English language proficiency before commercial pilot license training. You can contact our support center on the subject.

What is the Difference between Modular ATPL and Integrated ATPL?

The training period varies according to the availability of the person, exam performance and meteorology, but lasts 14-18 months on average.

Modular ATPL training consists of PPL, PIC, ATPL Theory, NVFR, IR, CPL and ME stages.

If you fail the check flight, you will only fly as many extra flights as the examiner determines for the training you have checked. Afterwards, you will take the check flight again.

The SEP(A) authorization on the CPL(A) you have received as a result of this training is valid for 2 years, IR(A) and ME(A) are valid for 1 year. In order to extend your license period, you must make a renewal flight before or after the expiration of the relevant validity periods.

When you complete the training, you will have flown a total of 217:00 hours including check flights.
