Program Requirements
In order to start on your Multi-Engine Add-On program, you’ll need to meet these requirements:
- Private Pilot License (PPL)
- Instrument Rating
Multi-Engine
Go Higher, Faster and Further
We take pride in offering a 7 day accelerated multi-engine add-on program that focuses on safety, efficiency and quality training. This add-on will allow you to fly multi-engine aircraft that are able to fly faster and further than most single-engine aircraft. The rating can be added to both Private and Commercial certificates, although a Commercial add-on is the most common for career track pilots.
Currently, all regional airlines require a minimum of 25 hours of Multi-Engine time and this rating is your first step to reaching those minimums.
A Top Training Fleet
Many flight schools offer multi-engine training in outdated and aging fleets with aircraft that are consistently down for maintenance. Flight training takes place in our 2020 Piper PA-44 Seminole that is G1000 NXi equipped and coupled with GFC700 autopilot. The Piper Seminole is the ultimate twin-engine training aircraft and the most popular multi-engine training aircraft built. Thanks to our experienced instructors and dedicated students we currently have a 100% pass rate in our multi-engine add-on program. Whether you are looking to take the next step in your aviation career track, or just looking to experience the thrill of multi-engine flying, we look forward to working with you!

Scottsdale, AZ“The instructors are smart, friendly and patient. The students at the school seem happy to be there and are very positive, which is refreshing. And the aircraft (C172’s) are top-notch. That was one of the big selling points for me. Safe, newer and well-taken care of airplanes.”

Scottsdale, AZ“Unlike other places, their planes are brand new and have the Garmin G1000 cockpit. So if you’re looking for flight lessons or a flight school in Phoenix or Scottsdale, I highly recommend Sierra Charlie Aviation.”

Scottsdale , AZ“I started my flight training at Sierra Charlie Aviation in January. […]They have all brand new C172S models with g1000s, a student pilot’s dream. Although the aviator program was rigorous the training I received was impeccable. Witnessing it firsthand, I can agree that the culture is different and it is by far the best school I have ever attended! 10/10”
