Summary
Your multiengine rating, explained by someone who has sat in the right seat.
Ready for two engines? Cleared for Two is a warm, witty and thoroughly practical guide to adding the airplane multiengine land rating to your private or commercial pilot certificate, written by Evelyn Schmidt Van Dyck, a longtime flight instructor and former FAA Designated Pilot Examiner. She explains what the regulations actually say, what the examiner is really looking for, and how to handle an engine failure calmly and in the right order at every stage of flight, from the takeoff roll to the flare.
The companion to Cleared for Takeoff, Cleared for the Approach and Cleared for Hire, this book picks up where your single-engine flying left off. It skips what you've already mastered and concentrates on what's new: flying a twin, losing an engine, and proving on a checkride that you can handle both.
PART ONE: GROUND SCHOOL FOR TWINS
Why adding a class rating takes no knowledge test and no minimum hours, the endorsements you'll need, and the "VFR only" and "center thrust" limitations that can catch the unwary. How to choose an airplane, a school and a training plan, and what really drives the cost. Then the aerodynamics of flying on one engine: why losing half the power costs most of the climb, the critical engine, what the red line really means, the certification conditions behind VMC, bank angle and zero sideslip. Finally, the systems and performance numbers that make twins different, including feathering propellers, crossfeed, accelerate-stop and accelerate-go distances, single-engine climb and the takeoff briefing.
