If the simulator is used in addition to the flying training, the minimum time of aeroplane training is 2 hours in MEP(land) aircraft.

The flying part of the IR extension training covers the procedures and manoeuvres for multi-engine IFR operation under normal, abnormal and emergency conditions including inoperative engine covering at least:

• transition from visual to instrument flight on take-off,
• standard instrument departures (SID) and arrivals (STAR),
• en-route IFR procedures focused on multi-engine operations,
• holding procedures OEI,
• instrument approaches to specified minima covering ILS, VOR-DME, LOC-DME, NDB and RNP with OEI
• missed approach procedures with OEI,
• landings from instrument approaches, including circling;
• in-flight manoeuvres and particular flight characteristics;
