There is a shortage of people to fly airplanes, and there is a shortage of people to fly helicopters.
Most people learn to drive for a job — to be a pilot or for business purposes.
Among private aircraft, the helicopter is still the most popular, because it is relatively limited by territory, does not need a runway, does not need a special hangar.
So?
There are also several types of private helicopter pilot licenses, mainly according to the type and type of aircraft, such as fixed-wing aircraft, helicopter, etc.
In the common single-engine fixed-wing land aircraft is also divided into two categories, one for the normal category (such as internationally renowned light aircraft, etc.), the charge is more than 120,000 yuan.
There is also a preliminary category, also known as the restricted category, which uses light or ultralight aircraft such as the domestic “Bee” series, the AD series and the American “Fast Silver” GT-500 for training, charging about 50,000 to 60,000 yuan.
It is important to note that there are restrictions in the beginner class – no night flights, no instrument subjects.
The advantage is that it costs less and the following theory test is simpler and easier to learn. For flying enthusiasts, a beginner’s license is a good choice.
According to the classification, it can be divided into and business.
In the “Civil Aviation Authority relaxed the standards for obtaining a private pilot’s license,” experts also made a vivid analogy, the private pilot’s license is equivalent to the car driver’s license of class C license, is the lowest level of license.
A professional pilot has a commercial driver’s license, which is equivalent to A Class B license and A class A license in a car driver’s license. Its standard and purpose are fundamentally different.
The former is for personal use and the latter is qualified to drive a public transport vehicle.
