Becoming a commercial pilot is more than logging flight hours. At Lycoming Aviation Academy, we prepare cadets for the full journey — from DGCA ground theory to airline assessments. Here are the five skills that matter most in 2026.
1. Strong DGCA Ground Subjects
Air Navigation, Air Regulation, Aviation Meteorology and Technical Specifics form the backbone of the CPL exams. Our DGCA Ground Classes are taught by CPL holders under the DGCA Section 7 syllabus, with exclusive study material and question banks.
2. Getting Your DGCA Computer Number Early
The Computer Number is a unique DGCA-issued ID and a mandatory first step before any DGCA exam. We provide end-to-end assistance — document verification, portal registration and exam slot guidance — so you never lose time.
3. Radio Telephony & Communication
Clear, standard-phraseology communication keeps the skies safe. Basic RTR practice and simulator sessions build the confidence examiners look for.
4. Simulator & Procedural Discipline
Our flight simulator hours (included in the program) train procedural accuracy and checklist discipline long before you reach the cockpit.
5. Interview & CRM Readiness
Crew Resource Management, SOPs and mock interviews by experienced airline pilots give you the edge in cadet pilot selection — where we maintain a 99% pass rate.
