⭕️ILS Categories – Landing in Low Visibility Made Simple

The Instrument Landing System (ILS) helps pilots land safely when visibility is poor. It uses radio signals to guide the aircraft’s approach and landing. ILS is divided into categories based on how low you can go before you must see the runway.

Category I (CAT I)

* Decision Height (DH): 200 ft above runway
* Runway Visual Range (RVR): ≥ 550 m (1,800 ft)
* Use: Standard precision approach in moderate fog or low cloud.

Category II (CAT II)

* DH: 100 ft
* RVR: ≥ 300 m (1,200 ft)
* Use: For thicker fog or very low cloud ceilings.

Category III

* CAT IIIa: DH < 100 ft, RVR ≥ 200 m
* CAT IIIb: DH < 50 ft (sometimes 0 ft), RVR ≥ 75 m
* CAT IIIc: No DH, No RVR limit – full auto-land in zero visibility (rarely used operationally).

In Simple Terms:

* CAT I – You need to see the runway fairly early.
* CAT II – You can land with very little visual reference.
* CAT III – The aircraft can land almost entirely on instruments, even if you see *nothing* until you’re on the ground.

🛫 “Should I Do a Type Rating?” – My Honest Answer

I often get this question from aspiring pilots, so here’s my take:

💭 From My Experience in Aviation

If you’re planning to join this industry, keep one thing in mind: you may have to pay for your type rating yourself.

It’s not always the case — some airlines cover the cost — but being prepared for this possibility is important. In many cases, pilots who are willing (and able) to fund their own type rating often secure jobs faster, giving them a positive push into their career.

Tip: Treat it as an investment in yourself, but make sure there’s a clear career path before you spend the money.

💡 Be prepared financially:
Sometimes the airline will cover the cost, sometimes you’ll need to pay yourself. In many cases, funding your own type rating can give you a faster route into a job — but only if the opportunity is certain.

⚠️ Don’t rush into it:
Never do a type rating on your own without a direct confirmation from an airline that they will hire you afterward. It has an expiry date, and if it expires without you getting a job, your money is gone.

What is a Type Rating?

There’s no such thing as a “type rating” for a CPL (Commercial Pilot Licence) or PPL (Private Pilot Licence) — those are licences that make you eligible to fly aircraft in general.

A type rating is specialised training and certification for a specific aircraft model. For example, if you’re going to operate a Boeing 737 or Airbus A320 for an airline, you must complete a type rating for that particular aircraft.

If the airline later moves you to a different aircraft model, you’ll need to do another type rating for the new type before you can operate it.

In short: Your licence allows you to be a pilot, but your type rating allows you to fly that specific aircraft.

✈️ Thinking of doing a Type Rating? Read this first!

Whether you should do a type rating depends entirely on the airline that plans to hire you.

✅ If the airline is paying for it, they’ll make you sign a contract — and breaking it before it ends means paying a big penalty.

⚠️ Never do a type rating on your own without a direct confirmation from the airline that they will hire you afterward. Type ratings have an expiry date, and if it runs out before you get a job, your money is gone.

💡 Bottom line: Only invest in a type rating once the airline has officially assured you of a position.

✈️ Aviation Truth You Need to Hear Before You Start ✈️

If you’re someone dreaming to become a pilot and thinking, “Which agency should I contact? Who’s going to help me get into a flight academy abroad?” — then read this carefully.

Unlike university admissions where agencies are everywhere to help you apply for a bachelor’s or master’s abroad, aviation doesn’t work like that.

Why?

Because not many go into aviation, and even fewer understand it well enough to guide others. The harsh truth? There is no dedicated organization sitting with a full system in place just to help you get into a flying academy.

It’s you alone who will plan, research, compare, communicate, and apply.
It’s you alone who will land yourself in the right place.
Yes, you can get some valuable advice from those who’ve walked the path. But that’s all—advice. The real work? That’s yours.

So stop searching for someone to “handle the process” for you. This isn’t a university consultancy setup.
This is aviation—and this journey demands you to stand up for yourself.

🚫 And most importantly:
Never give money to anyone claiming to be a “connection” or “agent” promising you an admission. Don’t fall for titles. Don’t fall for tricks.

✅ Do your research.
✅ Talk to real students or pilots.
✅ Ask questions. Take notes.
✅ Reach out to academies yourself.

Because at the end of the day:
You are your own agency. You are your own guide.

If you’re really serious about flying, then this is where your training begins—right now, by owning your journey.
