How many CPL+ worldwide?

[Chally604]

Hi everybody,

I try to find out how many pilots worldwide own a CPL or ATPL.
Trying to find some reliable numbers in google was not successful.
Does anybody have an idea or an idea where to get the information?

Thanks in advance :ok:

Best regards

Chally

During a presentation by an NTSB investigator a few years ago, he indicated that there are approximately 1 million licensed pilots in the USA. This would be all levels of certification.
