Pilot License - [How to become a Pilot, step by step! Interview With a Student Pilot].
In this video, we are going to talk about Pilot Licenses. I interview Matteo, which is a Student Pilot, in order to help you out understanding the steps required to become a pilot starting from zero.
I made my Pilot Training License 15 years ago, so I thought it might be interested to talk to somebody that is in the process now!
Choose your pilot license :
The first question you need to ask yourself is: ”Do I want to make money with my Pilot License or do I want to fly for fun?”.
If you have already an occupation and you want to fly for fun or recreational purposes than the Private Pilot License (PPL) is the right one for you. If you want to make Flying your profession and get paid, you need a Commercial Pilot License (CPL) and ultimately if you see yourself as a future Airline Captain you will need to get an Airline Transport Pilot License ”frozen” (ATPL frozen).
In the following YouTube Video I talk about how to choose the right Pilot License for you:

Get your pilot medical examination done:
This is a very important step, without a successful Medical Examination you cannot start the Pilot Course.

PRIVATE PILOT LICENSE:
With the Private Pilot License you can fly with a Single Engine Pistons Airplanes (SEP) everywhere (provided you have a minimum level of English Proficiency) bringing friends and/or family with you.

COMMERCIAL PILOT LICENSE:
The Commercial Pilot License allows you to get paid for your service as a Pilot in Command or Co-Pilot in ”Commercial Operations”.
This is the clear line that divides the CPL from the rest of the licenses.
The Commercial Pilot License can be done as a modular course, so you need to have the PPL and a minimum of flight hours experience (150h) before starting the CPL.
Normally, the Pilots interested to attend a CPL only course are Private Pilot with experience, that wish to upgrade their license and provide a remunerated service.

AIRLINE TRANSPORT PILOT LICENSE ''FROZEN'':
The Airline Transport Pilot License ”frozen” gives you the possibility to obtain the level of proficiency necessary to enable you to operate as a Co-Pilot on Multi-Engine Airplanes in Commercial Air Transport.
After you have the ATPL ”frozen” you are one step away from your application as a Co-Pilot in your favorite Airline. (If they hire of course).
ATPL ''frozen'' Modular or Integrated?
The ATPL ”frozen” can be achieved following two different paths that will bring you to the same result.
These two paths are called MODULAR and INTEGRATED.
With the Modular ATPL, you arrive at the end of the course ”step by step”, which means, that, you have to acquire all the intermediate Licenses one by one. So, if you start from 0 you have to get the PPL first, then, hour building to 150h (as explained previously in the CPL section) and ATPL exams, then get the Multi-Engine Commercial Pilot License.
The Integrated ATPL is one big course with no intermediate Licenses or Exams. So if you start from 0, you attend the ATPL integrated Course and you will only take the 14 ATPL Theoretical exams and the final Multi-Engine Commercial Pilot License skill test.
