Have you got any ground lessons during cpl/IR course ??
 
hello everybody!

I wonder if you have any ground lessons during the CPL/IR course in UK ??

Because I have searched on the website of many UK Flying School and in their course description I have never seen any informations about that...

thank you very much!

Sam,

The quick answer is No, there is no mandatory groundschool for either the CPL or the IR.

However, for the MEP course, there is a required 7 hours of groundschool and a written test. If the CPL includes the MEP (as is often the case), then it will have to include the MEP groundschool.

Having said all that, you should always expect a full brief and de-brief for every flight. In addition, the examiners will expect you to have a high level of knowledge of either VFR or IFR flight (depending on whether you're doing the CPL or the IR) and associated subjects, as well as a thorough knowledge of the aircraft you are flying. So, as well as full briefs and de-briefs, your school will ensure that you acquire the necessary level of knowledge along the way.
