What are the qualifications and requirements of being an airline/commercial pilot?

Question

hope someone can help me with this question..better if somebody from any airline pilot would answer this for me..tnx!

Answer 1

In the US:  at least a commercial pilot certificate with multiengine and instrument ratings.  Some flight experience--somewhere between 500 and 1500 hours is looked for to get hired.

Answer 2

You'll need a PPL (Private Pilots License) before you can get a CPL (Commercial Pilots License). After that you'll need VFR (Visual Flight Rules) and/or IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) ratings for whatever plane you are going to fly.

There's a wiki page thats actually quite in depth in explaining Pilot Certification in the US.
