is pilot good reputated profession for girls??
Answers
Yes, aircraft pilot is a growing in-demand career option for girls in India.
You can be a pilot with Indian Air Force (IAF) giving NDA exam after class 12th or can become a commercial aircraft pilot. The career path for IAF pilot would be very different from a commercial pilot. To become an Indian Air Force Pilot, you need to clear NDA exam and enter into Air Force Academy.
You can become a commercial pilot by pursuing 2 year certificate course after Grade 12th. Most institutes prefer that you should have studied science in your class 11th and 12th with Math and Physics. Medical fitness is also essential to take the course work of commercial pilot. You need to obtain a license after completing the course by giving an exam. Licensing is necessary to work as a pilot in India.
The course fee is generally high and vary from institute to institute. Some of the institutes in India offering commercial pilot certificate course are Rajiv Gandhi Academy of Aviation Technology, Kerala and Indira Gandhi Institute of Aeronautics in Pune / Chandigarh.
