WHY ADD A MULTI-ENGINE RATING?
A Multi-Engine rating opens doors that a single-engine certificate simply can't - here's why it matters.
Airline & Career Pathway
Major and regional airlines require a Multi-Engine rating. Adding your Multi-Engine Rating puts you on the direct path to ATP qualification and a professional cockpit.
Advanced Systems Knowledge
Multi-Engine training builds critical skills: engine-out procedures, asymmetric thrust management, and complex avionics - making you a safer, sharper pilot.
Faster, Longer-Range Flying
Multi-Engine aircraft offer higher speeds, greater range, and the redundancy of a second engine — making you a more capable, versatile pilot in any conditions.
THE DIAMOND ADVANTAGE
​Our Multi-Engine fleet is made up of 2 x Diamond TwinStar DA42 Turbo Diesels, one of the industry’s leading multi-engine training aircraft. The DA42 sets the standard for Multi-Engine flight training with unmatched safety, reliability, and performance.

Kekoa
Multi-Engine Graduate and CFI-I
Liberty University
"The self examining authority allowed me to complete my multi add-on at a faster pace without having to wait for DPE availability, and saved thousands of dollars due to not having to pay a significant checkride fee. Flying in the DA42 with the FADEC system allowed for more simplified flying experience. The course was streamlined and efficient, this is a no brainer program to partake in. Thank you CFS!"

Accelerated Program
"The instructors and stage check instructors know what they’re doing at Chennault. I got my Multi Add-on from their accelerated program and within a week, I got used to the well-kept DA42s they fly out of KVGT as well as the airport ops and general environment around Las Vegas. Very cool place to train and learn!"

Multi-Engine Graduate

"My experience and training was overall positive, the DA42 is a great trainer aircraft. I learned a lot from my multi-engine instructors - they were very helpful and always available if I had any questions. Having self-examining authority made the checkride process feel less intimidating and more like a natural progression of the training."
