The Instrument Rating Restricted IR(R) course offers the necessary training to allow a pilot to fly in Instrument Meteorological Conditions (IMC). The rating is designed as a rating to improve your VFR flying and will give you much greater confidence in the air, especially when the weather conditions are poor. It must not however be considered as a full Instrument Rating (IR) or used as such in full IFR conditions. The IR(R) is only applicable to those who hold a valid PPL or CPL, it cannot be added to the LAPL licence.
The course consists of a minimum of 15 hours dual flying instruction, and a further 20 hours of ground theory. In addition to this one ground exam must be taken, preparation for which will be provided adequately by our instructors and the Instrument study guide (Air Pilots Manual Book 5).
