The IR(A) practical course includes 55 hrs of flight instruction for a ME IR of which maximum 40 hrs in a FNPT II simulator, or 50 hrs for SE IR of which a maximum of 35 hrs in a FMPT II simulator.
All the lessons start form Lugano which is an IFR international airport, forcing the student to adapt, since the first mission, to a professional environment that includes airline flights and corporate jet.
Training is done usually in the Milan TMA but includes as well flights to Olbia, Ciampino, Venice, Zuirch or other airport on request; auxiliary oxygen and anti-ice or de-ice systems are available on our twin-engine training airplane giving us more margin of safety during the mission
