- In this video, I'm going to explain how to become a commercial pilot.
I am currently doing my flying training to achieve my dream of becoming a commercial pilot and in this video, I will be explaining to you how you can go from never having flown a plane before to becoming a fully qualified commercial pilot.

Wow, thank you so much! Appreciate the kind words
Great video Oli now I’m on my way to flight school, thanks for the information now it’s time to get my licenses, thanks once again. FAN FROM BOTSWANA 🇧🇼❤️❤️❤️
Awesome!!! Good luck and I’m glad you enjoyed
Great video, very informative
Great video and very informative. Looking forward to the next video already
Thanks for the great informative video.It really motivated me.
i hope you do well in your career, thank you
Thank you
@@PilotOli can you be my mentor?
Hi Oli,
Great video!
I’ve applied for the LEAP/FI course at leading edge and just passed the group stage. Next we have some psychometric tests to pass and then the final interview.
Any advice would be really appreciated!
Cheers!
Hi, congratulations on getting this far!
It's hard to practice for the psychometric tests, there are some websites online if you look around. For the final interview, know everything about the course, how many weeks each stage is etc, know everything about the company as well as the current airline market. All the best!
@@PilotOli thank you! :)
@@Nchapman0how has it been??
Love this really helpful
Great Video Mate, Just having Few Questions.
**After Completing ur Training, You got your Frozen Atpl then You applied for Airline then what happened after ?? Did they assign you for a type rating ?? On Which Aircraft?? What happened to the 1500hrs rule ??
He got his type rating on an a320, yes. Not sure wether it was lauda or not, but that’s what he did. He also did his base training and he got his 1500 hours through being a flight instructor in leading edge (I think, based of oli’s vids)
Great video mate, I’m currently considering if I want to follow the piloting route once I finish my A levels this summer. I was just curious regarding school grades. Are there any set grade requirements that the schools have or is it more a case of how motivated you are?
There are no A level grade requirements, I believe you need 5 GCSEs and as you’re doing A levels I assume you have that. It more comes down to the assessment day!
@@PilotOliI'm currently doing a levels but I'm struggling alot will I be ok even with poor grades?
For most schools an for a pass in the uk you need 5 GCSEs with Maths, English and Physics. This will have to be at a Grade 4 (R-) or a Grade C or above/equivalent. Hope this helps!
@@xavier3930a levels have no requirements. So it doesn’t matter too much about what you get on those. Make sure you have a Grade 4/C or above in Maths, English, Physics and 2 other subjects. These are the requirements for *Leading Edge Flight Academy*
1. You must be 18 Years and over on the first day of training
2. You must have a UK Passport or Right to Remain in the UK
3. You must hold 5 x GCSEs / equivalent including English, Maths & Physics - Minimum Grade 4 or higher and be able to obtain a DBS Basic Disclosure Certificate for the purpose of an airport security Pass
4. You must start training within 12 months of sitting your Skills Assessment (or you will be required to sit another, paid assessment)
5. Skills Assessments are only for LEAP Courses
6. Applicants can reschedule their assessment if we are given more than 14 days’ notice
Ok end of those instructions
@@xavier3930the main thing is being able to do basic/ medium maths problems mentally, everything else, calculator
I don't want to be a pilot but do have some questions for a pilot.
Still an informative video though for those wanting to become a pilot 👌
I was just wondering.
Do you adjust for coriolis?
What do you use to navigate?
Are the times you expect to fly for the distance accurate or are some flights longer and shorter than expected?
1. Yes we do!
2. Normally GPS is modern day but we can also use conventional nav aids.
3. Normally it is accurate but sometimes when we predict the winds they can be stronger or weaker then what we predict meaning the flight is quicker or longer depending on winds. Also sometimes we have to hold for various reasons which makes the flights longer.
Hope that helps!
@@PilotOli thanks appreciate it 👍 🙂
I have a question. There are some universities that do pilot training for only £9000 a year for 3 years. Is that the same as normal flight schools and will you be able to get the same jobs as someone who went to flight schools.
Yes son congratulations to u all.love
Hey, Oli! I’m preparing to start my integrated flight training next year once I finish school (I’m 17). I have one question, how important are your school grades during the selection process? Although my grades are good I still wonder how important they are to the flight schools.
hey,how are you funding the course?
They are not the most important factor. The most important thing is the interview itself. But having bad grades does not hurt, it shows you are willing to work hard.
@@yansh184I’m not the person, but there are a couple ways:
Family
Bank loans
Student loans
Get into a pre-paid program.
Work for a couple years.
would i struggle to find a job if i went down the modular route and didn't do a degree?
Hi Ben, great question! Personally, I don't think you would. I believe having the degree will appeal to airlines more but it's not vital. Or what route you went down. I think it's more about how you come across in the interview for the airline that really counts!
So with flight schools do they give you the atpl or get it from somewhere else
From your flight school you'll get a frozen ATPL and then you have to get 1500 hours to unfreeze it
Hey Oli, I really want to become a pilot when I grow up but I have colorblindness and I'm afraid this will stop me from being a pilot, can I still be a pilot if I'm colorblind? (I have red-green colorblindness)
Hi, I’m not 100% sure. It’s best to speak to an AME.
Unfortunately this is a game changer. This colour blindness specifically is definelty an issue, and will auto fail you for your class one I belive. Being able to differentiate between red an is vital for instrument
Hello Oli, I am a GCSE student and I really want to become a pilot. If you're free could we chat because I need to clarify some stuff.
Can you start flying after O levels with 5 GCEs or A'lvl is necessary?
For leading edge, only GCSEs at a grade 4/C are necessary.
did you need a sponsorship from the airline to become a pilot and if u dont have one can you still become a pilot
I didn’t have one then found the airline at the end of my training
Hey oli, amazing video, really informative but I have 1 question, how did you gain the ability to afford flight school? I really want to become a pilot but don’t have the funds for it.
I trained with Leading Edge who can give you a student loan for some of the money as you get a degree at the same time with them. Apart from that it was a mixture of saving up and a loan from my parents.
You can work for a while, do student loans like Oli says, or go to a dif country where it’s cheaper.
Hi bro, can u pls reply me whether u completed your high school Diploma and joined a flight school or without...?
I have a question that has bothering me for quite awhile, do I need a college degree if I want to get into an airline?
No you do not! You can start studying full time once you are 18. Some academys let you do a degree at the same time (which is what I did)
thanks, I specifically want to get into ryanair but just couldn't find an answer anywhere else. Thank you so much
Have you done PPL or just CPL only and then directly to Airline?
I did CPL, MEIR, APS MCC and AUPRT. Then off to airline
@@PilotOli Strange, Here in Slovenia you MUST have PPL to start CPL. I guess there is difference in UK
@@spotter3070wait I though the leap program was from ppl to fATPL too
What do you think about MPL
In my opinion, it’s not worth the risk, especially right after COVID! Look at the effect it had on so many
What qualifications are required to be a pilot??
Depends, but for leading edge and most flight schools, it will be 5 GCSEs at a grade 4/C or above, including Maths, English and Physics.
How much were the fees and expenses?
Integrated is a lot harder to afford without financial support from a parent for example , where as module you can work and collect your licenses as you can afford them . Integrated is around 90K to 120K in pounds and module is around 65 to 86 K depending on where you do it
Hi ! im a student from Pakistan , wanting to apply for pilot training in uk, what are the procedures for international students?
So you need to be able to stay in the uk, unrestricted, without any issues and a British passport.
You will need to have no issues staying in the uk, so I believe nationality is essential. I’m not quite sure but am british
Thanks for the great informative video,It really motivated me
That’s great to hear! Glad you enjoyed
