Instrument Ratings & Ground School
Increase Flexibility and Skill
An Instrument Rating – gives pilots greater flexibility, giving them the skill to fly when the weather is not bright and sunny.
There are two types of Instrument ratings: the Group 1 Rating and the Group 3 Rating.
The difference between the two ratings is that the Group 1 allows you to fly under IFR (instrument flight rules) in a multi-engine aeroplane.
