Flying Instructors & Examiners A place for instructors to communicate with one another because some of them get a bit tired of the attitude that instructing is the lowest form of aviation, as seems to prevail on some of the other forums!

Multi Engine Instructor

Hi there,

Is it possibly that someone could tell me the current requirements to become an ME Instructor please?

I have a current ME/IR with 71hrs on MEP which 33hrs are P1

I did read somewhere before that you required a certain amount of hours in the last 12mths,does this requirement still exist?

Any info will be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks

Quick Note- those 30 hours cannot include ME SPIC, PICUS or P1s hours.

Under what rules? FAA? JAR? Australian? Somewhere else? The hours and recency required is different for for all of them. Australia, for example, requires 50 hrs PIC/P1 but allows up to 25 hrs to be ICUS/P1US and has no recency requirement. The FAA requires 15 hrs / no recency. JAR specifies 30 hrs PIC with recency & other restrictions.

There can also be minimum experience prerequisites specific to aircraft type.

I'm talking about the CAA's requirements. Lasors is a little unspecific regarding the make up of the 30 hours stating only that ME SPIC time does not count towards the 30. However the policy department at CAA states that P1s and PICUS do not count.
ME SPIC I can understand but the others seem daft to me.

Basically you can jump in a multi and fart around doing nothing much of value for an hour and have that P1 time count but the hour spent P1s on say your multi renewal flying assymetric approaches and go-arounds, recovery from unusual atts etc doesn't count........go figure?
