Multi-Engine Rating
The Multi-Engine Rating will allow you to fly an aircraft with two or more engines. This Rating is part of the Integrated Commercial Pilot Licence, and may be combined with the modular Commercial Pilot Licence. The Multi-Engine Rating is required for most aviation careers.
Prerequisites
| Minimum Age: | 17 years old | Aviation Medical: | Category 3 or higher | Aviation Licence : | Private Pilot Licence |
Course Contents and Requirements
There is no minimum flight time or ground school required by Transport Canada for the Multi-Engine Rating. The candidate is required to meet the prescribed standards on a Multi-Engine flight test which includes both ground and air components. GFT uses the PA44-180 Piper Seminole for this training.
Dual Flight Time: 8.8 hrs
Solo Flight Time: 1.2 hrs
Preparatory Ground Instruction: 2.0 hrs (one-on-one instruction)
Ground School: 12 hrs
Flight Test: Completed by qualified TC Approved Examiner
Written Examinations: Not required
Course Schedule
Course Duration is usually 1 to 2 weeks depending on suitable weather and student performance. Candidates may begin training for the Multi-Engine Rating at any time.
Upon Completion
Most candidates continue immediately into the instrument rating program as most multi-engine aircraft operate under instrument conditions. The next step for most graduates is to complete selected airline career training if not already completed within the curriculum.
