Question on EASA BIR (Basic IR)

Posted by oro_93@reddit | flying | View on Reddit | 3 comments

Hi all

Currently considering pursuing the EASA BIR (basic instrument rating) addon to my PPL. Would love to hear from other BIR students/graduates on their experience so far:

Groundschool recommendations (Bristol GS seems one of the few providers?). Any good physical studying materials besides digital courses (e.g. Erlend Vaage)?
Difficulty level and scope of materials compared to PPL
Practical course: total hours, approach Sim vs Actual flying?

Thanks!

I think it will somewhat depend on what country you are in.

Consider asking this at www.pprune.org for lots of EASA-smart people to see.
