The main eligibility requirements for becoming a commercial pilot in Burkina Faso usually include being at least 18 years old, completing secondary education with subjects like Mathematics and Physics, having good English communication skills, and passing medical fitness tests and entrance exams. While these requirements are achievable for many students, the high cost of pilot training can still be a challenge for candidates from different financial backgrounds, which is why scholarships, loans, and international training partnerships are important for improving accessibility.
