Line Up and Wait
Last night I started IR training with my instructor. Her and her husband have a flight sim at home that I can build 10 hours in. Her lesson plan has 20 hours instruction in the actual plane, and part of the lesson plan has 10 hours in the sim which seems like a good idea.. We are going to combine cross countries into several of the lessons to help build the XC time up. What is an average amount of time people tend to need to be ready for the check ride? If I go out with another pilot to serve as a safety pilot, how easy is it to get ATC to provide practice approaches, holds, and such? Any helpful tips?
