The private instrument rating allows the holder to fly under instrument flight rules enroute and conduct approaches that they have been trained and approved to conduct. The initial private IFR rating allows the holder to conduct NDB/VOR as well as GNSS enroute navigation, as well as add on endorsements to conduct various approaches. Unlike the command instrument rating, each approach is an individual endorsement and requires testing before it is added to a license, including if it can be conducted during nighttime.

This endorsement is beneficial for someone who wants to take off VFR and climb through the clouds enroute to their destination.

 This course includes briefings on relevant approaches and enroute navigation, 10 hours of simulator flying and 10 hours in the aircraft.

Students can conduct this training in their own plane or ours.
