The FAA Multi-Engine Land – MEL (A) is a step forward to your aviation dream. One of the main takeaways of the training is to understand the differences between a single engine land and a multi-engine land aircraft.
Once you complete your Multi Engine Land training, you will get your MEL(A) qualification added on your FAA Private Pilot License – PPL(A) or FAA Commercial Pilot License – CPL(A). The Multi Engine Piston rating is valid for 12 months.
Theoretical preparation takes 5 hours with an instructor, during which you will become familiar with the multi engine land airplane, systems, and aerodynamics. You will also learn the procedures and maneuvers that apply in multi-engine airplane during normal and engine-out operations under VFR and IFR.
Note: The ground training is approximated to be about 5 hours. There is no minimum required time by the FAA.
The flight training takes 10 hours minimum of dual flight instruction including instruction in engine failures and asymmetric configuration. The training is divided into 5 stages.
To prove your practical skills, you will need to pass a practical flight test (Check Ride) with an approved FAA examiner.
