Refresh or enhance your instrument flying skills.
Recurrent instrument training is essential for maintaining the skills required for safe and proficient instrument flying. This type of training reinforces knowledge and procedures, while also building confidence – particularly for those pilots that may not fly under instrument conditions regularly.
Recommended Training Schedule
For pilots aiming to maintain safe and confident operations under real instrument conditions, we recommend a one-day recurrent training event every 90 days. This interval provides a consistent opportunity to refresh and reinforce key skills, preventing the degradation that can occur without regular practice. By training quarterly, instrument-rated pilots will stay proficient in important tasks such as conducting instrument approaches, handling unexpected weather, and executing emergency procedures. This rhythm also aligns well with FAA currency requirements and allows pilots to address any changes in regulations and/or technology.
