The chart to the right demonstrates a typical type rating package with Travis Holland. At the completion of the initial training, Day 6 and 7 are used for type rating checkride preparation, with the checkride on the 8th day. However, the training course will adjusted to meet the training needs of each client individually. Checkride location is normally KCNO but with prior arrangements checkrides can be conducted world-wide. Although the course is demanding, proficient instrument pilots will be able to complete the course and fly the Phenom with confidence. Flying Standards: The pilot is required to meet the Practical Flight Test Standards for the Airline Transport Pilot certificate. In addition, the pilot is expected to demonstrate skills and judgement necessary to safely operate a high performance, turbine aircraft in the National Airspace System.
