The
Instructor's Rating
The question often asked is: What do I do once
I have completed my Commercial Pilot Licence?
Who is going to employ me? This is never an easy
answer. Flying is like any other work activity;
in the sense that the better qualified you are
the better your chances of finding work.
An instructor's rating will give you the edge
over a pilot who does not have the rating,
providing you with one more avenue that you can
use to
gain hours and experience. It also adds experience
and value to your CV and career in aviation.
The instructor's rating consists of two basic
elements:
- Theory and examinations
- Practical flying.
You need to complete 20 hours of ground
preparation in which you cover all the ground
lectures.
You will prepare and present these lessons
until
they are of a satisfactory standard.
Once you have completed this phase you will
complete
the SACAA exams.
The second phase of the training will
be to complete 20 hours of flight training
and the
flight test.
Once you have completed the above you
will be a qualified Gr III flight
instructor.
