PC12 type rating

[eiffel]

What is the current cost of a PC12 type rating?
Is it possible to do the type rating in the US and put it on an EASA ATPL?

[AdamFrisch]

Doesn't need a type rating in the US, so the type specific training you can get doesn't qualify as a type rating. Might be some school that perhaps caters to EASA exclusively, like FlightSafety (and the costs that come with that), but that's prob it. Your best bet is to do it in Europe.

who's doing it? Price roughly?

[Hodin]

any chance you are looking for the single engine turbine class rating?
if so, is a type rating even required in that case or does any SET training cover also the PC12?

No, not in EASA Country.
PC12 is a HPA and has it´s own Typerating.

I think BCFT down at Bournemouth can do it. May be worth a try.

You will need a SET PC-12 Class Rating. Call Jonathan Shooter at Oysterair, they are an ATO based on the south coast in the UK.

How much roughly would be the cost of the training?

[SilverFearn]

Rough UK figures with 8h flying. £17k + Fuel + Airways + Landing Fees. Total just north of £20k with an income potential of around 500 £/€/$ a day.

When you say "potential income of €500 /day", are you talking about freelance rates? Is there a demand fo it? (Private owners? Corporate companies?)

Only if you bring your own aircraft....

NewCag at EBCI is organizing a course by the end of September.
Count on a total budget of around 20000€.

It's not a TR, it is a Class Rating. And I'm not sure you can classify the PC-12 as a "light aircraft".

20K€ is for training on the aircraft I suppose (inflight).
What about doing the training in a simulator? Does that bring the cost down?
