DGCA Ground School Curriculum

Commercial Pilot Licence Training

• Aircraft Handling: Straight and level flight, climbs, descents, turns, stalls, and recovery.
• Circuit Training: Takeoffs, landings, touch and go, and rejected takeoff.
• Navigation Training: Cross country flights, route planning, diversions, and airspace procedures.
• Night Flying: Night navigation, night landing, and night circuit operations.

Instrument Rating (IR)

Instrument Rating teaches pilots to safely operate aircraft using flight instruments without outside visual references.

• Instrument scanning and situational awareness.
• Navigation systems and IFR flight planning.
• Holding patterns, departures, arrivals, and missed approach procedures.
• ILS, VOR, RNAV, NDB, and GPS approaches.

Multi Engine Rating (MER)

Students transition to advanced aircraft management using the Diamond DA42 twin-engine aircraft.

• Multi engine aerodynamics and performance planning.
• Engine failure management and asymmetric flight.
• Single engine operations and emergency procedures.
• Takeoff, cruise, approach, and go-around failure scenarios.

Fleet Training

Advanced Avionics Training

Students learn to manage modern glass cockpits and airline-style cockpit workload.

• Garmin G1000 system
• Primary Flight Display and Multi Function Display
• Engine monitoring and navigation planning
• Traffic awareness and weather information
• Automation management, workload management, decision making, and situational awareness

Simulator Training

Simulator training prepares students for scenarios that are difficult or unsafe to repeat in real aircraft.

• Emergency procedures, engine failures, electrical failures, communication failures, and navigation failures.
• IFR operations, low visibility, holding procedures, approach procedures, and weather diversions.
• CRM, Threat & Error Management, SOP awareness, and decision making.

Crew Resource Management and Threat & Error Management

Students learn to think and act like airline pilots through communication, leadership, decision making, workload management, team coordination, risk management, threat identification, error recovery, and safety-focused operational awareness.
