Hello Everyone
I am trying to conduct a small survey on the validity of various ICAO Pilot licenses ( specifically CPL and ATPL )
Would appreciate your inputs on the following
ICAO Country :
Is an Expiry date printed on the license ? :
Instrument rating expiry date printed on the license ? :
Does the type rating expire ? :
Does the Civil Aviation Authority require a minimum educational qualification for issue of CPL / ATPL ?
I'll Start
ICAO Country : India DGCA
Expiry date printed on the license : Yes , CPL valid for 5 years , ATPL 2 years
Instrument rating expiry date printed on the license : Yes , Valid for 1 year
Does the type rating expire : Expires completely after 3 years unless a few sim sessions are done in between . If not one has to undergo the entire type rating all over again if more than 3 years after the last check
Does the Civil Aviation Authority require a minimum educational qualification for issue of CPL / ATPL ?
The Indian DGCA requires education upto pre university level which is 12years of school education . They require Science as a subject in 10th grade ( O Level ) and maths and physics as subjects in 12th grade ( A level )
Thanks in advance for all the answers . Trying to cover as many countries as possible
