Course Title: Instrument Rating
Instrument Rating
Lanseria Flight Centre’s team of full-time dedicated instructors are fully qualified to comprehensively train you, both theoretically and practically, to obtain your Instrument Rating
Why have an Instrument Rating?
Firstly for safety. You can never fully predict what weather may develop during your flight. You may inadvertently enter bad weather conditions, but if you have an Instrument Rating and keep it current, you and your passengers will proceed to your destination safely and professionally.
Secondly for job opportunities. If you do not have Instrument Rating, it is unlikely that you will be chosen for a job over another pilot who does, simply because the other pilot will be more versatile and flexible for the job at hand. The more qualifications you have, the more likely you are to succeed in this industry.
What are the requirements to obtain the Instrument Rating?
The student has to complete the following steps to obtain the Instrument Rating.
Completion of the theoretical subjects:
