What's a Class Rating Instructor?
A Class Rating Instructor (CRI) is an instructor that instructs existing pilots who have a current licence and medical.
Instruction can take place even if the pilot has a lapsed certificate of experience.
CRI's can instruct on any aspect of flying up to the level of their own current ratings.
Consequently, Nigel can instruct pilots as follows:
- provide general revision and refresher training including night, IMC and aerobatics
- undertake and sign off the biennial "dual" 1 hour flight required as part of the certificate of experience revalidation
- undertake and sign off official "differences" training (variable pitch prop, retractable undercarriage, turbo/super chargers, and tail-wheel) ratings
- undertake type conversions (e.g. HR200 to C172, TB10, AC112, Yak52 etc) day and night
- undertake club currency checkouts (day and night)
- authorise pilot sign-outs on aircraft tech logs
