IFR PIC

To be qualified for the ICAO to EASA instrument rating you have to have at least of 50 hours of PIC IFR experience. That simply means you have to gain this experience by flying IFR flights abroad and exercising the privileges of your ICAO license abroad. Not to forget to mention very important information. Should you are transferring also the class rating, you have to have the experience of at least 100 hours as PIC on the particular class. Otherwise you would need to attend full EASA class rating training course for that particular class rating.
