Multi Engine Rating  


You have waited long enough.  Now it is time to fly the powerful airplanes with two engines.  Airborne Systems has a Piper Aztec and a Piper Seminole for your multi-engine training.  Learn how the airplane reacts with that second engine.  A multi-engine rating might put your passengers at ease when flying over large bodies of water or large expanses of land between major metropolitan areas.  Whatever your reason, multi-engine flying is fun and exciting.

    

Prerequisite: A Private Pilot License is recommended, but we suggest that you get your instrument and commercial rating before you start your multi-engine training.  The expense will be less if you meet all the commercial requirements in the single engine and then add-on a multi-engine commercial.  It is all up to you.   You must be able to read, understand and speak English like the other ratings.

Time Frame: The multi-engine rating takes 7-14 days if you have already received your instrument rating.  If you do not have the instrument rating, it will limit your ability to rent multi-engine airplanes at our school and many others.

Curriculum:   A standard check ride is required with a designated examiner like all other ratings.  The topics to be discussed will be: single engine out procedures, weight and balance, aircraft systems,  and emergency procedures.  If you are working towards the commercial multi-engine rating with instrument privileges, two precision approaches will be required for the check ride. A written exam is not required for the multi-engine rating.

Cost: The cost of a commercial, instrument, multi-engine add-on is approximately $4,755 for 12 hour of flight time.
