We don't have two-seaters with gyros at our flight school ;-) - except the turn indicator - and we need at least dual NAV/COM as well as an ADF and DME for IFR flight in Germany. Everything below is not allowed for IFR. > In Canada, you need at least 40 hours IFR time for the rating.

We spend approx. over 9k Euro (15k CAD) for the PPL alone (including CVFR and night) and _additional_ 11k Euro (18k CAD) for the IFR training. If you like you can get it even more expensive .... Ha!, now I know why you managed to have an IFR rating in such short a timeframe after beginning :-) Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
