SECTION A
DESCRIPTION OF
COMPONENTS
The Multi-Engine Course includes provisions for both instrument-rated and noninstrument-rated applicants.
Those who are instrument rated and elect to exercise the privileges of an instrument rating in the multi-engine
airplane must complete all three stages of the course. Applicants who are not instrument rated, or those who are
instrument rated but elect to be limited to VFR only in the multi-engine aircraft, are required to complete only the
first two stages of the course. The following course components provide materials for both training programs.
