VATSIM UK's Pilot Training Department is proud to announce that we are now certified to train and award the P5 (Advanced IFR Pilot) Rating. After 9 long months of development and content creation, we have finally done it!

Our P5 base will be located at Aberdeen (EGPD) International Airport, our first time venturing this far north! The P5 course requires different types of non-precision approaches to be conducted, so we felt that Aberdeen would be a perfect choice as it has published LOC, VOR and NDB approach procedures. The course is almost identical to our P4 (IFR Pilot) Course, but with a few twists. 

The final aim of our course is to enable you to fly a twin-engine piston aircraft (below 5700kg) on an IFR route, conducting non-precision approaches without the aid of an autopilot. You will also learn the fun of flying with a partial panel whilst conducting a timed procedural NDB approach!

Sound fun? There are just a few things you need before you can apply:

If you do have an extensive knowledge of Instrument Flying, and would like to join the team then please get in touch with the PTD here, and we can offer a 'fast-track' through the P4/5 courses as you have already received the training for the courses outside of VATSIM or if you would like to sign up for the course click the link above or click here. This will help us speed up the process of gathering together a large team of mentors so that we can maximize training for the course!

Thanks,
Dan!
