Morning,

Quick one I hope.

Can one train for the SE CPL then the SE IR and then undertake the ME rating later? Does this give you MECPL/IR with no further training required? Or would one have to undertake some further MEIR training.

I know that a CPL is a license and ME and IR are ratings but I am still bloody confused!!

Help.

Thanks

MFWF :ok:

You could do a single engine CPL followed by a single engine IR. Then you would have a CPL SE IR. If you then do an MEP rating you will have a CPL MEP with a single engine IR.

To obtain a multi Engine IR you still have to sit another IR test in a multi engine aircraft. There is a mininum requirement to do at least five hours of IR training in a twin if you are conveting a single engine IR to a multi engine IR.
