Setting manifold pressures, Prop RPM Settings, use of gear, limiting speeds, fuel injection, turbos and a range of whole new Checks that had to be done at different stages of flight. The instructor went over a few basic things, and some that are more complicated. I had been told there was about 7 hour’s ground school alongside the 6 hours flying, so we started with the first of many briefs,

The Multi engine course is split into 6 hours flying, and 7 hours ground school with an exam paper and flight test at the end, for people who wish to go and complete the Multi Engine IR you can delay taking the test until after the actual IR Exam, this allows for more time in the aircraft so you can hone your skills, i myself will be delaying the actual skill test until im at least a few weeks into the IR. So at the start of the month i started my MEP rating on the piper seneca ii,this was my first time flying a complex a/c.Īs of today i have had 7 lessons in the a/c, and find it actually quite helpful to write up what i did, keeps it all in my head so to speak. Iv'e always found it helpful reading other peoples experiences when it comes to learning to fly so i thought that i should do one myself in case it might help others. I have been meaning to put this log on here for the last week but im only just getting around to it now.
