Full Transcript

Welcome to Epic Flight Academy’s Instrument Rating Course! In this lesson, Mike Thompson explains the essential aircraft documents and equipment required before taking off on an Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) flight. Pilots will review what must be on board the aircraft, how to confirm inspections are up to date, and what to do if equipment fails during flight. You’ll learn about SPARROW, A-AVIATES, ATOMATO-FLAMES, FLAPS, and GRABCARD—critical acronyms every instrument pilot should know. Mike also discusses Minimum Equipment Lists (MELs) and how to determine whether a flight can legally and safely continue after a malfunction. #InstrumentRating #EpicFlightAcademy #IFRTraining #PilotTraining #InstrumentPilot #FlightTraining #LearnToFly 📘 Video Chapters 1:04 – SPARROW 3:02 – A-AVIATES 4:37 – VOR Inspections 5:36 – Chart Supplement 6:25 – ATOMATO-FLAMES, FLAPS, GRABCARD 8:45 – Equipment Failure Procedures 9:37 – Minimum Equipment List 🎓 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.
