The process of the course
The theoretical part
At the beginning of the course it is necessary to present a certificate of successful completion of the theoretical course IR (A) / ATPL (A). The following is the segment of theoretical teaching IR (A) / ATPL (A) in an approved ATO with our lecturers. In case of interest, the theoretical part can also be completed remotely (study materials are part of the package price), provided that the practical part flies directly with us.
In the case of training taking into account the pilot's qualifications (so-called Competency Based IR), the theoretical part of IR can be completed in an abbreviated version in the range of 80 hours of teaching. The acquired qualification is full-fledged, the shortening consists mainly in reducing the requirement for flying hours from 50 to 40. Our instructor assesses your ability to perform IFR procedures and based on his own evaluation is entitled to recommend you for the exam, after which you obtain a full license. The only limitation lies in the fact that graduates of the shortened course are not entitled to flights within the HPCA (so-called High Performance Complex Aircraft) category. However, if you complete the appropriate ATPL or IR theory training, you will also receive this authorization.
