Commercial Pilot License (CPL) qualifies pilots to be financially compensated for piloting an aircraft. Unlike the Private Pilot Certificate, which is designed for recreational use and only permits the licensed pilot to share the cost of the flight, a CPL is the key to earning money through your service as an aircraft pilot.

For commercial pilots, ground training covers areas like high-altitude operations, weight and balance computations, accident reporting requirements, and the use of performance charts. An instructor endorsement is required in order for you to take the knowledge exam.
2. Pass the written knowledge test with a grade of 70 percent or better
This one consists of 100 multiple-choice questions. You’ll have three hours to complete it. In 2018, 95 percent of the roughly 12,700 students who took the exam passed; the average score was 85 percent.3

This must include at least 100 hours as pilot in command, 50 of which must be in cross-country flights. You’ll also need to complete at least 10 hours of instrument training, one cross-country flight in daytime VFR and one in nighttime VFR, and one cross-country flight that covers a distance of 300 nautical miles and has a single segment of at least 250 miles. Your instructor must verify that you are proficient enough to take the checkride.
