Airplane Multiengine Rating
Take the Next Step in Your Aviation Journey
Earning your airplane multiengine rating is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make as a pilot. It unlocks advanced aircraft, sharpens real-world flying skills, and opens the door to professional opportunities that simply aren’t available to single-engine pilots.
At OAS, our multiengine training is designed to build confidence and advance your skills in flying complex, high-performance aircraft.
Why Add a Multiengine Rating?
- Expand Career Opportunities – Many commercial, charter, and airline positions require or strongly prefer multiengine time
- Build Advanced Skills – Learn multiengine aircraft systems, and management of asymmetric thrust during simulated engine inoperative scenarios
- Increase Marketability – Stand out with a credential that signals advanced aviation knowledge and additional pilot capability
- No Written Exam Required – For airplane add-on ratings, training leads directly to the checkride
- Efficient Training – most complete the rating between 8 to 12 flight hours, based on our experience
What are the Multiengine Add-On Rating Requirements?
Pilots who already hold a Private or Commercial Pilot Certificate can add a Multiengine Airplane (AMEL) rating with no written knowledge test and no FAA-mandated minimum flight time.
To earn the multiengine add-on rating, you must:
- Hold a valid FAA pilot certificate (Private or Commercial)
- Receive ground and flight training from an authorized instructor in multiengine aircraft operations
- Demonstrate proficiency in multiengine aerodynamics, normal and emergency procedures, including simulated engine-out operations
- Receive the required endorsements from an authorized instructor
- Pass a practical test (checkride) consisting of an oral exam and flight test
- Hold a valid medical certificate or BasicMed
Train with Confidence
Our experienced instructors, advanced DA42 L360 multiengine aircraft, and structured syllabus ensure you are prepared for a successful checkride—and for the next stage of your flying journey.
Whether your goal is the airlines, charter flying, or simply becoming a more capable pilot, a multiengine rating is an investment that pays off.
