FCL.725.A Theoretical knowledge and flight
instruction for the issue of class and type ratings – aeroplanes
Regulation (EU) 2018/1974
Unless otherwise determined in in the operational suitability data established in accordance with Annex I (Part-21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012:
(a) for single-pilot multi-engine aeroplanes:
(1) the theoretical knowledge course for a single-pilot multi-engine class rating shall include at least 7 hours of instruction in multi-engine aeroplane operations; and
(2) the flight training course for a single-pilot multi-engine class or type rating shall include at least 2 hours and 30 minutes of dual flight instruction under normal conditions of multi-engine aeroplane operations, and not less than 3 hours 30 minutes of dual flight instruction in engine failure procedures and asymmetric flight techniques.
(b) for single-pilot aeroplanes (sea):
(1) the training course for single-pilot aeroplane (sea) ratings shall include theoretical knowledge and flight instruction; and
(2) the flight training for a class or type rating (sea) for single-pilot aeroplanes (sea) shall include at least 8 hours of dual flight instruction if applicants hold the land version of the relevant class or type rating, or 10 hours if applicants do not hold such a rating; and
(c) for single-pilot non-high-performance complex aeroplanes, single-pilot
high-performance complex aeroplanes and multi-pilot aeroplanes, the training
courses shall include UPRT theoretical knowledge and flight instruction
related to the specificities of the relevant class or type.
EASA aircrew regulations mandate specific theoretical knowledge and flight instruction hours for aeroplane class/type ratings. Multi-engine training requires 7 hours theory, 2.5 hours normal, and 3.5 hours engine failure dual instruction. Seaplane ratings need 8-10 hours dual flight. UPRT training is required for complex aeroplanes.
