• At least 200 hours of total flight time when applying for a CPL(A) license.

• 250 hours of theoretical training through distance learning and classroom sessions (individual or group).
• 10 hours of basic instrument flight module (BIFM) training, with 5 hours on a FNTP II device and 5 hours on a single-engine piston aircraft (SEP(L)).
• 15 hours of training in visual meteorological conditions, including 10 hours on a single-engine piston aircraft (SEP(L)) and 5 hours on a complex multi-engine aircraft (MEP(L)).
• CPL(A) or ATPL(A) theoretical exam.
• Practical exam and issuance of the CPL(A) license.

If the candidate holds a PPL(A) license with night VFR flying privileges and a valid IR rating or has completed the BIFM basic module, practical CPL(A) training can be reduced to 15 hours of training in visual meteorological conditions, including 5 hours on a complex multi-engine aircraft and 10 hours on a single-engine aircraft.

Before starting CPL(A) training at ATO Smart Aviation, the candidate must have a valid MEP(L) rating or possess a certificate of completion of a minimum of 6 hours of practical training on land-based piston multi-engine aircraft.

The practical exam for the CPL(A) license can be combined with the practical exam for the MEP(L) rating within 6 months of completing the MEP(L) training.
