Elan Head Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Hmm, I have an FAA instrument/instrument instructor rating already so I would personally be looking at a Canadian conversion. Haven't had the time to even think about this one, though! Has anyone else out there converted their FAA instrument rating to a Canadian one?

Sorry. I must have bumped my head and forgotten who I was addressing. Oh and it would be nice to do this in a R22-GT Glass Trainer wouldn't? Specialized Helicopters is the only one I know of using these for IFR currency however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All he had to do was write the Canadian exam and do a ride as he met all other categories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elan Head Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Cool, thanks. And wow, I totally forgot to ask about the Robinson thing while I was down in Phoenix. Passed the IPC though! I was pleasantly surprised to discover I actually remembered my IFR procedures, though there was a moment on my night flight with an inop turn coordinator over the black desert when I found myself profoundly disoriented. A good reminder of how things can turn ugly, fast! And why R22s should NEVER be used in actual IMC... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
