AeroSur

The Zero to Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) – Part 141 DINACIA with Multi-Engine Rating is AeroSur's flagship integrated pilot training programme, designed for aspiring professional pilots with no previous flight experience. Following a structured Part 141 training syllabus approved by DINACIA and aligned with ICAO standards, the programme takes students from their very first flight through to earning a Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) together with a Multi-Engine Rating (ME).

Combining comprehensive theoretical instruction, practical flight training, simulator sessions, and advanced multi-engine operations, this programme prepares graduates for careers in airlines, charter operators, corporate aviation, flight instruction, and commercial flight operations worldwide.

Program Overview

The AeroSur Zero to CPL with Multi-Engine Rating programme delivers a complete professional pilot training pathway from beginner to industry-ready commercial pilot. Students begin by mastering the fundamentals of aviation before progressing through Private Pilot training, Commercial Pilot training, and advanced multi-engine operations. The curriculum covers aerodynamics, aviation law, aircraft systems, meteorology, navigation, flight planning, human performance, aviation safety, operational procedures, radio communication, commercial flight operations, and advanced aircraft performance. Practical flight training develops proficiency in solo flying, cross-country navigation, night operations, emergency procedures, commercial manoeuvres, and multi-engine aircraft operations. The Multi-Engine phase introduces students to twin-engine aircraft systems, asymmetric flight, engine failure recognition and recovery, advanced aircraft performance, emergency procedures, and professional cockpit resource management. Graduates complete the programme with the knowledge, experience, and confidence required to operate both single-engine and multi-engine aircraft safely while meeting the expectations of today's commercial aviation industry.
