ADVANCE FLYING ACADEMY
To obtain a Commercial Pilot License (CPL) in Denmark, you need to follow the guidelines set by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the Danish Civil Aviation and Railway Authority (SERA). Here’s a general overview of the process:
1. Eligibility Requirements
- Age: You must be at least 18 years old.
- Medical Fitness: You need to hold a valid Class 1 medical certificate issued by an approved aviation medical examiner.
- Language Proficiency: You must have a good understanding of the English language (both written and spoken) since English is the international language of aviation.
- Private Pilot License (PPL): You must already hold a valid PPL (A) before beginning CPL training.
2. Training
You must complete training at an EASA-approved flight school. The training consists of two parts:
- Theoretical Training: This typically includes subjects like air law, aircraft general knowledge, flight performance, meteorology, navigation, and human factors. The theory courses usually take place over several months, either in-class or through online study.
- Flight Training: You must log a minimum of 200 flight hours. This includes:
- 100 hours of pilot-in-command (PIC) time.
- 20 hours of night flying, including cross-country flying.
- 10 hours of instrument flight training.
- At least 5 hours of solo flight time.
3. Examinations
After completing your training, you must pass both theoretical and practical exams. The theoretical exams are written, while the practical exam is conducted in-flight with an examiner.
4. Skill Test
After meeting the required training and hours, you will take a practical flight test with an examiner. This test will assess your ability to perform flight maneuvers and decision-making skills in various scenarios.
5. Post-Training
Once you successfully pass the exams, you will receive the EASA CPL, allowing you to work as a commercial pilot. You may need to undergo additional ratings and endorsements, such as the Instrument Rating (IR) or Multi-Engine Rating (ME), depending on the aircraft you intend to fly and the kind of operations you plan to conduct.
6. Additional Ratings (Optional but Recommended)
- IR (Instrument Rating): Allows you to fly solely by reference to instruments.
- ME (Multi-Engine Rating): Allows you to fly multi-engine aircraft.
- ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot License): If you aim to fly as a captain for an airline, you will eventually need to obtain the ATPL.
Cost
The total cost of obtaining a CPL in Denmark can vary depending on the flight school, but it generally ranges from €30,000 to €50,000 or more. This price typically includes training hours, exams, and materials.
Licensing Authority in Denmark
The Danish Civil Aviation and Railway Authority (SERA) governs aviation licenses in Denmark. They work with EASA to ensure all aviation regulations and standards are met.
Final Steps:
Once you have completed the training and passed all exams, your CPL will be issued. If you plan to fly for an airline, you may need to gain further experience through a flight instructor role, or by applying for jobs with charter or cargo operators.
Make sure to consult the EASA or SERA website or contact a flight school in Denmark for more detailed, up-to-date information.
