1. Aim of Course
The objective of the course
is to give the candidate a sound theoretical knowledge of multi-engine
piston aircraft operation and to teach the skills necessary for
the safe and competent operation of such aircraft.
2 Course Entry Requirement
Whilst it is possible
to complete a course of PPL training on a MEP aeroplane the candidate
is required to have 70 hours flight time as pilot in command (PIC)
of aeroplanes before attempting the Class Rating Skill Test of
a MEP Class or Type rateing. It is therefore assumed that the applicant
to an MEP Class rating will be in possession of at least a valid
PPL (A) and have 70 hours experience as PIC before commencing the
course. There are no solo exercises on the course.
3 Syllabus
The syllabus to be followed is the
Southern Clying Centre/LimaDelta Aviation Limited Multi-Engine
Piston Class Rating Syllabus (based upon CAP 601).
Section 2 Training
Programme
The course shall be confined to
a maximum of 2 students per instructor not more than 4 students

student availability and will require a minimum of three working
days.
Flights will normally be arranged to
last 1 ½ hours.
Students shall not complete more than 3 flights or 4 ½ hours
flying in any one day.
The 7 hours ground training shall be

take the Skill Test until they have:
• Completed the
minimum ground and flight training
• Passed the ground
examination
• 70 hours PIC in aeroplances
• Received
the recommendation of the course instructor.
On completion of all
training, candidates shall take the Class Rating Skill Test with

Theoretical examinations shall be administered
by the course instructor, on completion of ground and flying training.
Examination papers are to be maintained
in the examiners cabinet and secured by lock and key.
The examination
papers shall comprise of 50 multiple-choice questions covering
the course syllabus. Each question shall have 4 alternative answers.
The pass mark is 75%. The questions shall comprise typically,
60% of questions related to MEP operation and 40% related directly
to the type of aeroplane used on the course. The intention is
that candidates will be well prepared to operate any MEP Class
aeroplane.
Examination questions are to be reviewed
periodically to determine their overall effectiveness. Instructors
are to provide feedback in areas of training where additional questions
may be required. Questions repeatedly failed are to be reviewed
for relevance and the ground training checked to ensure the relevant
material has been covered.
Candidates who fail the examination
are to receive additional ground training before attempting another
examination paper. A second sitting is not to be conducted on
the same day.
Section 5 Training Effectiveness
Because of the short duration of the course it may well take several
hours of flying training before it becomes apparent that a student
is having difficulty. Where necessary, additional training shall
be conducted before proceeding to the later exercises. On occasion,
it may be appropriate to change instructors.
The changing of instructors
shall be mutual consent between the candidate and the two instructors
concerned.
No more than two instructors shall teach the same
student.
Training deficiencies comprising of syllabus items missed
or repeated mistakes made by a student shall be detailed in the

is assessed as unacceptable by at least two instructors
• Where
the candidate's attitude is assessed as being incompatible with
the safe operation of aircraft.
Students shall not be suspended
without the agreement of the HT/CFI who must first give a verbal
warning. Details of which shall be recorded in the training records.
Training records shall be retained for a period of 5 years. Copies
of Trianing Records may be forwarded to other FTO's where the candidate
goes for further training.

ensuring compliance with the Quality system.
2 Standardisation Requirements and Procedures
Course Structure
The mandatory course shall comprise
of 7 hours of ground training in the form of lectures or long briefings
and 6 hours of flight training. The content of the ground training
is given in the Southern Flying Centre/LimaDelta Aviation Limited Multi
Engine Piston Class Rating Syllabus, Chapter 2, the content of
flight training, which shall include 3 ½ hours of asymmetric
training, is at Chapter 3. The ground flight training shall be
integrated and co-ordinated so that the candidate gains the macximum
benefit for time spent in the air. On completino of this training
and the ground examination, the CFI shall certify that the candidate
has completed the course satisfactorily. All requirements stated
in this syllabus are to be regarded as a minimum.
M A Vickers CFI
Date
Instructional Methods
Either a Flight Instructor (FI) shall conduct
flight instruction or a Class Rating Instructor (CRI) holding a
valid professional pilots licence with ratings valid for MEP class
aeroplanes. The ground instructino shall take the form of long
briefings given by the same Flight Instructor. Each flying exercise
is to be proceeded by a short briefing followed by a post flight
de-briefing and analysis of the students' performance. Where two
students are trained together, considerable value may be obtained
by flying 1 student as a passenger whilst the other student conducts
the briefed exercise. Instructors are to follow the exercise sequence
laid down in the Southern Flying Centre/LimaDelta Aviation Limited Multi
Engine Piston Class Rating Syllabus Chapter 3. It is desirable
to integrate circuit flying with other air work by conducing 30
minutes circuit training at the end of each exercise. This will
also help to eliminate noise complaints
