Welcome to Epic Flight Academy’s Instrument Rating Course! In this lesson, Mike Thompson explains what every Instrument Rated Pilot must have before flying under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR). From certificates and medical requirements to pilot experience and personal readiness, this video covers the essential documents, items, and qualifications needed for legal and safe IFR operations. You’ll also review instrument experience, medical validity, and the importance of self-assessment before each flight—reinforcing the pilot’s responsibility to operate safely and confidently in all weather conditions. #InstrumentRating #EpicFlightAcademy #IFRTraining #PilotTraining #InstrumentPilot #FlightTraining #LearnToFly 📘 Video Chapters 0:38 – Required Pilot Documents 0:58 – Pilot Certificate Currency 1:45 – Flight Experience Requirements 2:45 – Instrument Experience 4:12 – Medical Experience 4:59 – Government ID 5:39 – Self-Assessment 6:13 – Equipment Used During Flight 🎓 Start Your Instrument Pilot Training: https://epicflightacademy.com/prequalification-enrollment Learn more about Epic Flight Academy’s Instrument Rating Course: https://epicflightacademy.com/instrument-rating/ This course is taught by Epic Flight Academy's own Mike Thompson. Mike Thompson is the author of "Telling Is Not Teaching", which promotes the idea that the “new school” of teaching that embraces electronic technology cannot sacrifice the “old school” of human relationships because the human brain stills learns in largely the same way that it has for millennia.
