THEORY AND FLIGHT TRAINING

This course is studied after completion the AVI50219 Diploma of Aviation (Commercial Pilot Licence – Aeroplane), providing you with the aeronautical experience required for a career as a commercial pilot. All training delivered in our DA62, PA30 or BN2 aircraft.

The AVI50519 Diploma of Aviation (Instrument Rating)  allows students to fly as pilot in command in a single or multi engine aircraft under the Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), in conditions that would make visual flying (VFR) impractical allowing the pilot to fly without reference to the ground. You will also be qualified to operate at night under the Night VFR. Instrument flying is a challenging, but hugely rewarding pursuit and once mastered, often becomes a pilot’s first preference over VFR flying operations.
