Multi-Engine Land (MEL) Rating

Expand your piloting capabilities with OAS’s Multi-Engine Land (MEL) rating, an add-on for pilots with a single-engine certification seeking to master multi-engine aircraft. Our comprehensive training covers everything from aerodynamics to emergency operations, with hands-on experience in a Diamond DA42, preparing you for both the oral exam and practical checkride.

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.
