Advanced Aeronautical Practice 2 provides you with the general handling and navigation training for the Command Instrument Rating. Your flight training will be conducted by an approved external flight training provider. You will accumulate the aeronautical experience required for the Multi Engine Endorsement and Multi Engine Command Instrument Rating, both in a simulator and a light aircraft. You will have the opportunity to identify meteorological conditions that require instrument navigation. You will also further develop your critical reflection and self analysis skills enabling you to improve your instrument flight rules and procedures operating skills. During this unit you will keep a reflective journal which will assist you to present a critical analysis of your experience at the end of the unit. After completing this unit you should meet the requirements for the issue of a Multi Engine Command Instrument Rating. You will be required to attend residence school on the Cairns Campus in order to satisfy part of the assessment.

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.
Feedback from U/C
To conduct a ME class rating in 5 hours is more than challenging for students
Grant additional hours for the ME class rating.
Feedback from U/C
Flight training delays due to Melbourne flight provider change.
These changes should be made with longer transition periods to avoid prolonged flight training delays among students.
