I have indian citizenship I have done my Btech in mechanical engineering from India. However, I have few questions regarding the course and future opportunities. Can you please answer them?
1. Can I work in Canada if I am doing CPL from USA after the training is complete?
(Do I get a work permit VISA to work as a pilot in Canada after the completion of the course? )
Is there any period restriction on work VISA?
Do I have to have secured a job before getting the work permit?
2. How much time does it take to finally be able to work as a pilot and earn? How much time does the training take?
3. What is the average salary in Canada?
4. If I am allowed to work as pilot in Canada, can I work just after my CPL or do I have to complete Type Rating?
5. Am I allowed to have a part time job to manage expenses during the training?
6. What is the fee structure for CPL and further Type Rating?
I thank you for your time and for answering my questions.
