About this listen
Your type rating, explained by someone who has spent a career on both sides of the checkride.
Ready for heavy metal? Cleared for Heavy Metal is a warm, witty and thoroughly practical guide to earning an airplane type rating, the line on your pilot certificate that lets you command one specific jet or large airplane, written by Evelyn Schmidt Van Dyck, a longtime flight instructor and former FAA Designated Pilot Examiner. She explains what the regulations actually say, what really happens inside a full flight simulator, and what the examiner is looking for on checkride day.
The companion to Cleared for Takeoff, Cleared for the Approach, Cleared for Hire, Cleared for Two, Cleared to Teach, Cleared to Teach the Approach, Cleared to Teach Multi-Engine and Cleared for the Flight Deck, this book picks up where your ATP or commercial flying left off. It skips what you've already mastered and concentrates on what's new: learning one airplane inside out, flying it by the book with a crew or alone, and proving on a checkride that you can command it.
PART ONE: UNDERSTANDING THE TYPE RATING
What a type rating is and which airplanes need one: large aircraft of more than 12,500 pounds, turbojet-powered airplanes and others the FAA specifies. Who needs one under the operating rules, including the second-in-command type rating and its "SIC Privileges Only" limitation. The paths to the rating: adding a type to a private, commercial or ATP certificate, earning the ATP and the type together, or qualifying through an operator's checking program. Then how to choose a course at an airline, a Part 142 training center or an operator, compare quotes and pay for it.
