The first stage of the CPL course takes place on the Trinidad TB-20, a single piston engine, variable pitch, retractable under-carriage aircraft, equipped with advanced instruments. 655 hours of Ground Subjects Training firms up the basic knowledge on aviation subjects.

This combined with 20 hours on a Flight Simulator, conveying basic instrumental flying tracking approach and touch-down procedures followed by 172 hours of flying time.
