AirDorrin: Multi-engine Ground School
I'll be offering a winter course this year at Delmarva
Aviation (Georgetown airport) , intended to
train, educate, challenge, and entertain. The
course will include ground training, a review of instrument procedures,
and simulator based flight training on an approved flight simulator.
Our simulator is being updated with the Garmin 430W system before we
get started, so most of you will get some additional benefit out of
that.
Note: Course content may changed based on participant experience, and
needs. See AeroTech's Multi-Engine Training Manual, repeated here with their permission.
COURSE DETAILS
- Private pilot certificate
holder
- Instrument pilots will log a minimum of 6
approaches, holds, and intercepts

- Note: we do not have access to a multi-engine
airplane, so there will be no multi-engine hours logged
- Multi-engine Phase I and Phase II
courses:
- All materials included
- The course cost is incredibly
reasonable, and intentionally set low to introduce you to it.
