Commercial Pilot's Licence Multi

Follow Multiflight Flight Training Centre on Facebook: Facebook

The Commercial Pilot's Licence Multi (CPL/ME) allows you to combine the Commercial Pilot's Licence with the Multi Engine rating, allowing a saving in both time and cost. Once achieved you will hold the same privileges as a single engine CPL holder, however you will also be able to fly a higher performance, multi-engine aeroplane. The majority of training providers conduct their IR training in a multi-engine aircraft and therefore this allows a quick progression onto the IR.

The entry requirements for the CPL/ME are identical to the standalone CPL.

There is a slight difference in the hourly requirements for the CPL/ME in that the training consists of 20 hours training on a simple engine aircraft and eight hours training on a twin Duchess BE76.

CPL Multi

The CPL/ME flight test is combined and taken in one test with a CAA examiner and is valid for one year. The licence may be renewed with an annual flight test.

The theoretical examinations consist of:

  • Air Law
  • Navigation
  • Aircraft General Knowledge
  • Operational Procedures
  • Flight Performance and Planning
  • Principles of Flight
  • Human Performance and Limitations
  • Communications (VFR)
  • Meteorology
  • In-house Multi Engine Exam

The flight training consists of:

  • 20 Hours training on a simple single engine.
  • 8 Hours training on a complex twin engine.

On completion of your training you would then need to take and pass the flight test with a CAA examiner.

The CPL/ME is valid for 1 year and is renewed by successfully completing a flight test.
