Instrument Rating

Single & Multi-Engine

Privileges

An instrument rating allows the pilot to fly during Instrument weather conditions (IMC) in either a single engine aircraft category 3 or a multi-engine aircraft which is a category 1 instrument rating.

Prerequisites

The candidate must hold a Commercial Pilot License (this is an EFC requirement for entry in the program and is not a Transport Canada requirement), 50 hours of cross country Pilot in Command (PIC) time and have successfully completed the INRAT written exam. To be considered for an exemption of requiring a CPL please contact the CFI at [email protected] with your total flight time and flying experience.

Requirements

  • 40 hours of instrument time (Instrument time previously logged for the PPL, night rating or CPL may count toward this minimum time)
  • A dual cross-country of at least 100 nautical miles, under simulated or actual IFR conditions must be completed
  • A Transport Canada Written and Flight Test must be completed

Duration

Training is at the student’s pace and convenience. The course will take 2-3 weeks if full time and 2 months if part-time (3-2 lessons a week.), weather and aircraft dependant.
