Multi-Engine Course
Double the Fun
Flying multi-engine airplanes is a thrill, but comes with new challenges
Is more engines safer?
Multi-engine flying is only safer if you have the discipline to make it safer. Multi-engine airplanes have redundancy, but flying a twin with one engine inoperative comes with a whole host of performance, stick and rudder, and systems considerations that pilots must train for.
Course Philosophy
We firmly believe that there is no “amateur” multi-engine flying. You either train, plan, and fly like a professional or you put your passengers at tremendous risk. For that reason, this course is specifically tailored to pilots seeking to approach multi-engine flying like professionals.
This course is the product of a team with thousands of hours in unforgiving piston, turboprop, and jet airplanes like the Cessna 310 and 414, Piper Navajo, Bombardier Q400, and Boeing 737.

Bio
Multi-Engine Course
There’s no written exam for a Multi-Engine add-on, but training is expensive and students with a solid grasp of what’s going on will save money in training. That’s where we come in! The multi-engine course comes with:
- A course totally dedicated to helping you understand how to fly multi-engine airplanes safely in the real world
- Heavy emphasis on simplifying multi-engine flying in ways that pay dividends throughout your career.
- A deep dive into the complicated Cessna 310 fuel system: if you can understand how to learn that system, you can apply the knowledge to other makes and models, even in transport category airplanes.
- The entire resources directory
- A comprehensive end of course study guide
- The Multi-Engine classroom
- The ability to direct message your instructors, who are experienced multi-engine turboprop and jet pilots.
