Every multi-engine course at CRAFT runs in the Diamond DA42-VI NG. Jet-A diesel twin, single-lever FADEC engine controls, G1000 with GFC700 digital autopilot, the same family of automation airlines fly behind. Modern systems means less pilot workload, fewer surprises, and a smoother bridge to the airline cockpit. The checkride is booked when you book the course.
The FAR doesn't set a minimum hour requirement for most multi-engine ratings. The numbers below are our standard packages. We tailor to your experience and proficiency.
Add-on rating to an existing Private or Commercial certificate. No knowledge test, no minimum time, you just have to demonstrate proficiency. Most pilots reach checkride-ready in 8 hours.
For pilots with private who want to earn commercial privileges in a twin. Most efficient path if your end goal is the airlines. Counts toward the 50 hours of multi for ATP.
FAR 61.183(j) requires 15 hours PIC in the same class. Already a single-engine CFI? You can finish in about 8 hours.
Finish-up training for the Airline Transport Pilot practical test. You've already done the ATP CTP and passed the knowledge test. We polish you for the ride.
This is our rough draft course outline, but we tailor it to each and every student. Every student has their own strengths and weaknesses, and that's the CRAFT advantage over a Part 141 school: we build the week around you, not the syllabus.
DPE is already booked. You've done three days of focused twin time. Walk in, walk out a multi-engine pilot. New ticket, new privileges, every airline cockpit on the table.
Modern, twin-diesel, single-lever digital engine control. The aircraft pilots fly when they want a clean transition into turbine operations. G1000 panel, GFC700 autopilot, and a Redbird AATD configured to the same DA42 controls and avionics.
The biggest reason "accelerated" stops being accelerated isn't instruction, it's checkrides. At CRAFT, we book the DPE before we book your course. Your check ride is locked from the moment your dates are set.
Hours, ratings, target window. We'll match you to the right multi track and a DA42 slot.
