Multi-Engine Rating
A Multi-Engine Rating (MER) allows you to fly aircraft with more than one engine, expanding your piloting skills and career opportunities. This certification is essential for pilots aiming to operate multi-engine aircraft used in commercial aviation, corporate aviation, and advanced flight operations. Training focuses on multi-engine aerodynamics, single-engine failure procedures, and complex aircraft systems.
Earning a Multi-Engine Rating enhances your ability to handle advanced aircraft while preparing you for commercial and airline pilot roles. With multi-engine training, you'll gain experience in asymmetric thrust control, emergency procedures, and high-performance aircraft operations. Many commercial airlines, charter services, and corporate flight departments require or prefer pilots with multi-engine experience.
Our training covers essential topics such as multi-engine aerodynamics, including understanding the effects of asymmetric thrust and best practices for handling engine-out situations. You'll also learn advanced flight maneuvers, fuel management, propeller synchronization, and electrical system operations. This rating is a key step toward becoming a more skilled and competitive pilot in the aviation industry.
