| Senior Member | Typically how many hours does it take to get the multiengine rating? How many more to get the MEI? Has anyone here done both checkrides at the same time? Thanks!

| cant speak for the MEI but the ME takes anywhere between 9-20....if you go to ATP or somewhere similiar you will do it in around 9, if you go to an FBO you will probably do it around 15 or so hours, I have found that FBO's are more cautious to ensure you really "know" the material as opposed to "knowing enough" to pass a checkride. that is my two cents though and is not an ATP knock or a knock on anyone who took 9 hours to get their multi

| i did my ME commercial add/on at Skymates and had 5.5hr after the checkride. You will need 15hr Multi PIC to take the MEI. |

| Go see Clyde Fredrickson out in Arlington, TX. $1295 guaranteed. You will probably only get about 3-4 hours in the plane, and the rest will be spent in a mockup doing your flows and so forth. It is a three day program. I didn't go there but I've heard great things about the program. PM me if you need the number because they don't have a website. As far as the MEI...after the 15 hours of pic it is just a matter of proficiency. |
