Multi + IFR
Quick question here...
I'm waiting for my multi-engine flight test and there is a waiting list. Are we allowed to start the IFR training on a multi aircraft before doing the multi-engine flight test?
Thanks for your answers!

Re: Multi + IFR
Doesn't your instructor know the answer to that?
The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no
After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.

Cornwall does that.
In any case, nothing wrong with preparing ahead, for the IFR in my opinion, you have to put in a lot of study work and preparation. Most that can be done without babysitting of an instructor (saves you $$$ cha-ching $$$).
First few lessons you'll be in the sim doing basic instrument work and incorporating the IFR items like SIDs, approaches, holds etc... so you won't even need the aircraft. As stated above, ask your instructor, if you get a different answer, ask the CFI.
Also, may as well prep for the INRAT, it'll make your flight lessons easier if you know your material!

Re: Multi + IFR
My INRAT is already done, so that's why I was looking for ways to not waste my time before doing the IFR. Plus I saw there an opportunity to have more flight time in the twin before my test.
Thanks!

Of course you should start. No rule says you cannot.
