Instrument Ratings
An Instrument Rating complements a Commercial Pilot Licence in your aspirations of working in the industry as a pilot.
Or for Private pilots the Private Instrument rating is a great edition to your licence.
Both Single Engine (SE) and Multi Engine (ME) Instrument Ratings are available.
We put particular emphasis on night flying as the Instrument Rating allows a pilot to fly IFR at night. We believe students need more experience than the minimum hours required by the regulations, to feel comfortable should they need to conduct IFR operations at night.
We have a variety of Single & Multi Engine aircraft available to conduct your instrument training.
