SIERRA SEAPLANES

Multiengine Sea Course:

The course includes up to six-hours of dual flight time in the PA-23 amphibian, ground school, study materials, examiners fee, aircraft rental for the checkride, and a six month membership to the Seaplane Pilots Association.

This course trains pilots to handle a multi-engine seaplane confidently, not just to pass minimum requirements. Students are expected to solely and competently fly the aircraft at the end of the course.

The six-hours included with the basic course is based on average student completion times (usually 5-7 hours for a Commercial Pilot). To help keep costs down, multiengine currency is strongly recommended when beginning the course. We define “current” as having recently flown and performed maneuvers; specifically, single-engine emergencies in a light twin.

Price:

Airplane Multiengine Sea Course:      $3,900.00
