Pre & Post Type Rating Classes

Pre & Post Type Rating Classes – What Are They?

Type Rating is a specialized training program required for pilots to operate a specific aircraft type (e.g., Airbus A320, Boeing 737). Pre and Post Type Rating classes help pilots prepare for and reinforce their type rating training.

1️ Pre-Type Rating Classes (Before Type Rating)

Objective: To help pilots prepare for their Type Rating course by covering essential theoretical and technical knowledge before they begin simulator training.

What’s Covered in Pre-Type Rating?

Aircraft Systems & Operations (e.g., Airbus A320/Boeing 737 systems)
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
Flight Management System (FMS) Basics
Emergency Procedures & Memory Items
Performance & Limitations
Basic Multi-Crew Coordination (MCC) Principles
Simulator Familiarization & Checklist Flow Training

Why Pre-Type Rating is Important?

  • Helps pilots grasp complex aircraft systems before entering the simulator phase
  • Increases confidence and efficiency during actual Type Rating training
  • Reduces the chance of failing expensive simulator sessions

2️ Post-Type Rating Classes (After Type Rating)

Objective: To reinforce and refine the knowledge gained during Type Rating and prepare for airline simulator assessments and operational flying.

What’s Covered in Post-Type Rating?

Refresher on Aircraft Systems & SOPs
Line-Oriented Flight Training (LOFT) Simulations
Handling Abnormal & Emergency Situations
Mock Airline Simulator Assessments (IndiGo, Air India, etc.)
Multi-Crew Coordination (MCC) & Airline CRM Training
Jet Handling & Real-World Scenarios

Why Post-Type Rating is Important?

  • Ensures pilots are fully prepared for airline job interviews & simulator checks
  • Helps in clearing IndiGo, Air India, Akasa, SpiceJet, etc. airline simulator assessments
  • Enhances handling of real-world flight operations before line training

Who Should Take These Classes?

CPL Holders preparing for A320/B737 Type Rating
Pilots aiming for airline job selections
Candidates who completed Type Rating but need refresher training
