Roadmap
Multi-Engine Rating
Our program is designed for pilots seeking an efficient and comprehensive path to earning their Multi-Engine Rating. With professional instructors and advanced aircraft, you’ll achieve proficiency in multi-engine flight operations.
1
Meet Eligibility Requirements
To begin training, you must hold a valid Private Pilot License (PPL) or higher. Instrument proficiency is recommended to enhance your training experience, although it is not required.
Training in our Beechcraft Baron allows you to earn your Multi-Engine rating, Complex endorsement, and High-Performance endorsement—all in one. Unlike many twin-engine trainers with lower horsepower, our Baron’s 260 HP per engine ensures you meet high-performance aircraft requirements while gaining valuable multi-engine experience.

2
Ground School Training
Ground school covers critical concepts such as multi-engine aerodynamics, weight and balance, single-engine operations, and system failures. You’ll learn how to handle emergencies like engine-out scenarios and how to manage asymmetric thrust.
This foundational knowledge prepares you to safely and confidently operate multi-engine aircraft in all phases of flight.

3
Flight Training in Multi-Engine Aircraft
You’ll conduct hands-on training in one of our multi-engine aircraft, such as the Piper Seminole, gaining experience with advanced systems like twin-engine performance, variable pitch propellers, and retractable gear.
Our instructors will guide you through critical maneuvers, including engine-out procedures, VMC demonstrations, and precision landings, ensuring you’re confident in the cockpit of a twin-engine aircraft.

4
Engine-Out Scenarios
A key aspect of multi-engine training involves mastering engine-out operations. You’ll learn to maintain control during single-engine flight, troubleshoot system failures, and safely navigate to an airport.
This training ensures you can effectively manage emergencies, increasing your proficiency and safety as a multi-engine pilot.

5
Pass the FAA Practical Test
The final step in earning your Multi-Engine Rating is passing the FAA Practical Test. This checkride includes an oral exam and a flight test where you’ll demonstrate your knowledge and skills in multi-engine operations.
Our program prepares you with mock checkrides, personalized feedback, and advanced flight practice to ensure you pass with confidence.

Completing your Multi-Engine Rating at LA Flight Academy expands your opportunities in the aviation industry. With advanced training, real-world scenarios, and expert instruction, you’ll be ready to take the next step in your aviation career.
