COURSE DESCRIPTION

The EASA ATPL(H)/IR modular theoretical knowledge training is a distance learning course at which the student is prepared to participate at and to pass the official ATPL(H)/IR theoretical knowledge exams.

 

A distance learning course means that the student studies most of the course material at home and takes part in a few days of (mandatory!) brush-up sessions. The study material is divided into 36 self-study weeks of 15 hours. Each week is concluded by a progress test. 

 

The total amount of hours for the ATPL(H)/IR theoretical knowledge training is 651 hours, including progress tests, 10 brush-up days and the new Area 100 Knowledge, Skills and Attitude exercises and assessments. The course is divided into three modules.

 

Module 1 comprises the category specific subjects like Airframe and Systems, Instrumentation, Mass and Balance, Helicopter Performance, Operational Procedures and Helicopter Principles of Flight. 

 

Module 2 comprises Meteorology, Human Performance, Air Law, Communications and the preparation for the first Area 100 KSA assessment.

 

Module 3 groups the remaining subjects: General Navigation, Radio Navigation, Flight Planning and Monitoring, and the preparation for the second Area 100 KSA assessment.

 

The course fee includes the weekly study guide and workbook, the follow-up by the ATO and the brush-up days. Other study material is available for purchase including a paper version of the study material and the General Student Pilot Route Manual.
