Multi-Engine Rating

Operate aircraft with more than one engine

Overview

Multi-Engine Rating

A Multi-Engine Rating qualifies you to fly as pilot-in-command of any aircraft with more than one engine. It is a necessary certification add-on for pilots advancing to the airlines, or to increase overall marketability in the aviation workforce. Training on our C310R makes you proficient operating twin-engine aircraft.
