Training · IFR

Instrument Rating

Learn to fly by instruments and manage the whole flight.

Who it's for

Private pilots who want to fly in the clouds and manage an instrument flight on their own.

Training with Greg

  • One-on-one instruction from an Airline Transport Pilot
  • Emphasis on managing the whole flight, not just flying the approach
  • You train in your own aircraft or one you arrange, since Greg doesn't supply an airplane

  • 50 hours of cross-country time as pilot in command
  • 40 hours of actual or simulated instrument time
