Post IR?
Hi, can anyone throw some light on this. In EASA part cat it states that you need 100hrs IFR in order to fly a single pilot ifr commercial flight. Given that as you leave training with a shiny IR you have around 10hrs IFR flight time how do most guys progress onshore? Obviously, offshore is all twin crew (easa land anyway) but not much twin crew onshore work about. I'm probably missing something but any thoughts appreciated. RP |
Very difficult, Hence the offshore co-pilot position
|
It comes as a surprise to me that 10 hours IFR flight time can get you an IFR ticket.
|
EASA IR is 50 hr course. 40 in the sim and 10 in the aircraft hence the 10hrs flight time. |
In the old days night flying was IFR so that helped!

Simples - you don’t have to be VMC whilst flying IFR. |
Simples - you can fly VMC under IFR. |
212man - you missed my point, sorry I wasn't clear; newly qualified CPLs have the privilege to fly at night so, even before you got an IR, you could log IFR time.
Otherwise, to go IFR in our part of the world, you needed an IR! |

So when it comes to going IMC, whilst you have done 100 hours VMC, guess whats going to happen |
