Hi, To become a commercial pilot, you have to complete the Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) course from any reputed institute. At Bombay Flying Club you get a combined course of B.Sc in aviation plus CPL course. The duration of the course is 3 years. The B.Sc Degree is affiliated to Mumbai University.
