I want to do commercial pilot training(CPL).what is the estimated cost for it?which schools r the best for it?

Go to a airport near you, talk to the commercial pilots, they can guide you. Most airports have flight schools and the instructors/recruiters who can fill you in. So far you have many good answers. You need to do a lots of foot work. You also need to know that after getting the commercial pilot licence you need to get a job soon or must have money to fly few hours per month or in a year's time to keep the licence current. This is very expensive to do.

1. You may pursue CPL training at the following academies:- (a) INDRA GANDHI RASHTRIYA UDAAN ACADEMY , RAE BARELI. (b) MP FLYING CLUB , INDORE 2. The training period is from 1 year to 18 months and the the cost of training is anything between 3 lacs to 8 lacs depending on the infrastructure and the category of aircraft you are being trained upon. 3. IGRUA is presently the best as it is getting a lot of governmental aid to bring it at par with international standards. **** THERE IS GOING TO BE A SHORTAGE OF APPROXIMATELY 3000 COMMERCIAL PILOTS BY 2010. I SUGGEST YOU GIVE IT A SERIOUS TRY.****

CPL is neither a degree or a diploma, but it allows u to fly an airplane that is endorsed on it. However there is an aviation school in Andheri(W) mumbai that offers a B.Sc (Aviation) that ends with a CPL, However they are not so successful so far, as they do not have sufficient flying facilities. Thakur polytechnic at Kandivli (E) mumbai offers courses for Aircraft Maintenance Engineers (AME), and shall be shortly offering courses for CPL. The cost would be close to Rs. 10 lacs for CPL and 3 lacs for AME diploma. I do not know where u live ? or I could give u reference to a place close to your home town.
