The question often asked is:
What do I do once I have completed my Commercial Pilot Licence? Who is going to employ me?
This is never an easy answer. Flying is like any other working activity in the sense that the better qualified you are the better your chances of finding work.
The instructor's rating will give you the edge over a counterpart who does not have the rating. It will provide you with one more avenue that you can use to gain hours and experience. It also counts points once you go for that big interview and even pays dividends once you are in the airlines or wherever your final flying destination might be.
The instructor's rating consists of two basic elements like all other flying. Theory and examinations on the one hand, and practical flying on the other hand.
You will have to complete 40 hours of ground preparation in which you cover all the ground lectures. You will prepare and present these lessons until they are of a satisfactory standard. Once you have completed this phase you will complete the SACAA exams.
The second phase of the training will be to complete 20 hours of flight training and the flight test.
Once you have completed the above you will be a qualified Gr III flight instructor.
It has been seen time and time again that one of the best ways to progress to the airlines is through instruction. It is a wonderful way of progressively building hours and the airlines appreciate this form of very disciplined flying. It will also increase the opportunities for employment. It will be our greatest pleaure to offer you a position, if available, at Blue Chip Aviation once you have completed your Instructor Rating.
