I did the advanced entry flight grading which is meant to be 7 flights on the Tobago. The first flight was general handling, stalls, wing overs and unusual attitudes and turns ranging from medium to steep. You have to be up to standeard as youre only marked out of 5 and if the instructor has to verbally correct you on anything, your grade reduces immediately. Doesnt matter if you get mostly 4s, you get a 3 your overall grade for that flight is a 3. Flight 2 involved cicuits only, Flapless, Glide and short take offs and landing. The third part was instrument stuff conducted under the hood. The 4 th flight was a general nav around 180nm round trip with a precautionary search and landing conducted at a dirt strip. I can not comment on the advanced course, for people with over 30 hours but under 250 hours. All I know is that you do 3 flights on the Grob 115 and 3 simulator flights in the King Air sim.Theres plenty of info posted further back. Good luck everyone
