Go Higher, Faster and Further
We take pride in offering an accelerated multi-engine add-on program that focuses on safety, efficiency, and quality training. It can be completed in as little as 7 days! This add-on will allow you to fly multi-engine aircraft that are able to fly faster and further than most single-engine aircraft. The rating can be added to Commercial certificates, and a Commercial multi-engine add-on is the most common for career track pilots.
Currently, all regional airlines require a minimum of 25 hours of Multi-Engine time, and this rating is your first step to reaching those minimums.
In order to start on your Multi-Engine Add-On program, you’ll need to meet these requirements:
Sierra Charlie Aviation’s experienced MEIs are ready to help you reach your goals. Our course is structured to allow time to self-study and receive dual instruction in the air and on the ground daily. Below is an outline of what you can expect during your training.
Day 1: Dual Flight & Dual Ground
Day 2: Dual Flight & Dual Ground
Day 3: Dual Flight & Dual Ground
Day 4: Dual Flight & Dual Ground
Day 5: Progress Check with Senior Instructor
Day 6: Day off
Day 7: Checkride
Dual training in the classroom is heavily focused on aircraft systems, performance, limitations, and emergency procedures. While in the airplane, your experienced instructor will teach you the fundamentals of all maneuvers necessary to pass the checkride and safely fly the aircraft. There is a heavy focus on single-engine operations (one engine out) and precision maneuvers.
Many flight schools offer multi-engine training in outdated and aging fleets with aircraft that are consistently down for maintenance. Flight training takes place in our Piper PA-44 Seminole, which is G1000 NXi-equipped and coupled with the GFC700 autopilot. The Piper Seminole is the ultimate twin-engine training aircraft and the most popular multi-engine training aircraft built. Our multi-engine add-on program has a 95% first-time pass rate and is a proven formula for success. Whether you are looking to take the next step in your aviation career track or just looking to experience the thrill of multi-engine flying, we look forward to working with you!
