Flight Training Phase 1

Exercises up to the first solo flight comprise a total of at least 14 hours
dual flight instruction on a SEP aeroplane including:

• Pre-flight operations, mass and balance determination,aeroplane inspection and servicing.
• Aerodrome and traffic pattern operations, collisionavoidance and precautions.
• Control of the aeroplane by external visual references.
• Normal take-offs and landings.

• Flight at critically low air speeds, recognition of recoveryfrom incipient and full stalls, spin avoidance.
• Unusual attitudes and simulated engine failure.

Flight Training Phase 2

Exercises up to the first solo cross-country flight comprise a total of
at least 10 hours of dual flight instruction and at least 16 hours solo flight including:

• Maximum performance (short field and obstacle clearance)take-offs and short-field landings
• Flight by reference solely to instruments, includingthe completion of a 180 ° turn
• Dual cross-country flying using external visual references,DR and radio navigation aids, diversion procedures
• Aerodrome and traffic pattern operations at differentaerodromes

• Crosswind take-offs and landings
• Abnormal and emergency procedures and manoeuvres,including simulated aeroplane equipment malfunctions
• Operations to, from and transiting controlled aerodromes,compliance with ATS procedures, R/T proceduresand phraseology
• Knowledge of meteorological briefing arrangements,evaluation of weather conditions for flight and use of AIS.

Flight Training Phase 3

Exercises up to the VFR navigation progress test comprise a total of at least 50 hours as PIC.
The dual instruction and testing up to the VFR navigation and 5 hours flight time shall
be completed at night, comprising 3 hours of dual instruction, which will include. At least:

1 hour cross-country navigation and 5 solo take off landings,
and 5 solo full stop landing and UPRT flight instruction

• Repetition of exercises of phases 2 and 3;
• VFR flight at relatively critical high air speeds,
  recognition of and recovery from spiral dives;
• VFR navigation progress test conducted by
  an FI not connected with the applicant’s training;

Flight Training Phase 4

Exercises up to the instrument rating skill test comprise:

• 115 hours instrument time, of which
• 20 hours as SPIC
• 15 hours MCC, for which an FFS or FNPT II may be used
• 50 hours of instrument flight instruction, which up to

40 hours is instrument ground time in an FNPT II, FTD 2 or FFS of which up to 10 hours may be conducted in an FNPT I by an FI or an authorised SFI

• 55 hours instrument time flown as SPIC on actual aircraft;
• Pre-flight procedures for IFR flights, including the use of
  the flight manual and appropriate ATS documents in the
  preparation of an IFR flight plan
• Procedures and manoeuvres for IFR operation under normal,
  abnormal and emergency conditions covering at least
• Transition from visual to instrument flight on take-off

• SIDs and arrivals
