Instrument Rating

Fly through cloud with total confidence — precise IFR procedures for safer, go-anywhere flying.

Master the art of flying blind

The Instrument Rating teaches you to navigate and land using instruments alone. Most of the course happens in our certified simulator — holds, DME arcs, ILS and RNP approaches — before you fly the procedures for real in challenging UK weather.
