Getting a Multi Engine (ME) Rating is going to give you more opportunities as a pilot. The aircraft are often bigger, more complex and you can fly them further and faster. This broadens your horizons immensely.
The flying characteristics do require extra skills compared to flying a single-engine aircraft. At Breda Aviation, we are happy to teach you MEP flying. To this end, we offer both MEP-VFR (Visual Flight Rules) and MEP-IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) training.
The ME/MEP rating is also part of any ATPL training and thus an indispensable component for any subsequent step in a commercial pilot career. In short: it is a valuable investment in your professional development as a pilot.
For this training, we use the Multi Engine Tecnam P2006T MKii and the Tecnam simulator.
In MEP flying, in addition to the VRF/IFR aspects of flying, we will actually pay a lot of attention to asymmetric flying at OEI (One Engine Inoperative). In other words, flying on one engine. Surely the big difference is the extra engine and the peculiarities involved for you as a pilot.
We use our Simulator mainly to master the Garmin G1000nxi.
In theory, we will cover flying a complex multi-engine aircraft. The average time for the total theory is 8 hours. Here, previous experience and combination with IR affect the total time. The whole training is supported from BredaPedia in which all teaching material and also questions are available. It is therefore possible to be flexible in studying the material for each lesson.
Everything can be found in BredaPedia and includes:
If you're all set, you can of course register straight away. Still have questions? Take a look at our FAQ page or contact us, we will be happy to help.
Basically, your ME training starts with obtaining your PPL (Private Pilot Licence). We use the Aquila A211 for this purpose. This is a modern two-seater in which all PPL practice can be flown. This low-decker is equipped with modern Avionics and a spacious open cockpit.
Apart from this, there is also the option to get your PPL on the Tecnam P2010. This is a very complete and modern high-decker. This aircraft is also used for the Instrument Rating (IR) part of the ATPL training.
