IFLY Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 The only requirement I can find seems to be 15 hours in cat & class. Am I missing something? Does the FAA say since I can instruct in an R-22 then I can instruct in a 300c also? I know the insurance companies require some time in make and model but I don't know how much.

adam32 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I believe it is 5 hrs in make and model to instruct per FAA regs. 15hrs in make and model to take your CFI checkride in that model. Insurance companies are a different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coptermedic Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 adam32 is correct. if you look at FAR 61.195 (f) it states; (f) Training received in a multiengine airplane, a helicopter, or a powered-lift. A flight instructor may not give training required for the issuance of a certificate or rating in a multiengine airplane, a helicopter, or a powered-lift unless that flight instructor has at least 5 flight hours of pilot-in-command time in the specific make and model of multiengine airplane, helicopter, or powered-lift, as appropriate. Hope this helps;Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clay Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 AFIRM.. I did it. started in enstrom F-28a's, did all ratings, started teaching at a school with 280c's, then moved to another school that a 280fx, and a couple 300's, now we have a r-44 as well. keep on plugging away and you'll be able to teach in anything! (thats my goal) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaredsega Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 ya the 5hrs this is cool. I had 153 HRS when I started teaching in a 300C. and less than 15hrs in type. so for the robbie guys the 200hrs before u can work is not true just go to enstrom or 300sno reson to pay for 200hrs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
