Fly
IFR! Get
your Instrument Rating! This complete IFR training course is designed to take the average Private Pilot who has logged at least
50 hours of cross-country flight time as pilot in command, to an
IFR rated pilot including preparing you for the FAA
Instrument Rating Knowledge
exam and your IFR Practical Test!
Proper
IFR training doesn't have to take a long time! Using Cessna's FAA
Approved Instrument Rating Computer Based Instruction program, FAA approved simulator
and PCATD, experienced CFII flight instructors and IFR
certified, Garmin G-1000
equipped IFR training aircraft, gives you the right combination to
ensure that you will be trained as a safe and proficient Instrument
Rated pilot in less time than with traditional training models. You can fly
IFR with confidence when you know you've been
trained by the best!
The
instrument rating will expand the flying privileges of your Private Pilot license to include flying in
IFR weather conditions that is below the minimums required for flight under Visual Flight Rules (VFR). Many pilots say that the training they receive during their instrument rating training course makes them an all around better pilot as well,
and many insurance companies are now giving discounts of up to 25%
for pilots with an Instrument Rating.
