A career in aviation attracts many youngsters, not the least because it offers a glamorous lifestyle and an opportunity to travel around the globe. Job opportunities have multiplied in recent times, since privatisation has resulted not only in a number of private airlines operating in the sector, but new international airlines have also started operations in India. However, before you sign up at the nearest flying school, you should know all about the career and know what it has to offer. The Competition Master presents here a comprehensive guide for a career in aviation and describe both sides of the picture. A list of addresses is also provided for students who would like to pursue a career in this lucrative field. This has resulted in a huge demand for trained commercial pilots. Salaries have been pushed up : a trainee pilot can earn Rs 15,000 per month, which is a good amount for starters. Pilots earn Rs 65,000-85,000 per month; foreign airlines pay much more, going up to Rs 1.5 lakh per month and even higher. Add to this the charm of touring the world and going to distant destinations, staying in good hotels, having a status in life and perks of getting free tickets for your family. The charm of flying high-technology machines and soaring high is another factor for the popularity of this career. Before you start pestering your parents to send you for the career, consider the other side of the picture too. It is a highly responsible job with no room for error. Flight timings are unearthly and this will play havoc with your body as well as your family life. If you are medically unfit at any time, you will be grounded with considerable financial loss. Besides that, flying at high altitudes is extremely tiring and may result in reduced vision, slowed reflexes, dizziness and ozone sickness. If you have travelled a long distance in a plane you will know the kind of fatigue that air travel generates. Imagine doing that for the rest of life. Do you think you can cope? In fact, you should have
a medical fitness test done even before you join. Pilots have to undergo
medical and fitness tests at the Air Force Central Medical Establishment
at New Delhi or the Institute of Aviation Medicine at Bangalore. A
change in physical health, such as a heart ailment, epilepsy, diabetes
and so on, can result in grounding of a pilot. Civil Aviation in India Click here Indian Ministry of Civil Aviation Click here Educational
