YOU NEED MULTI-ENGINE TIME.
IS JUST LOGGING HOURS ENOUGH?

THERE ARE CHEAPER WAYS TO BUILD 75 HOURS.

If the lowest possible cost per logged hour of multi-engine time is your only priority, other options may be a better fit. Discovery built this program for pilots who want the hours AND a structured transition toward professional Part 135 and Part 91 operations.

You still build the time, but you are expected to do more with it.

75 HOURS OF BASIC TIME BUILDING

  • Primary objective: accumulate multi-engine flight time

  • Training structure and standardization vary

  • Crew procedures vary

  • Ground training varies

  • Career preparation is usually separate

75 HOURS AT DISCOVERY

  • Primary objective: prepare for professional flight operations

  • 69 hours of structured cross-country crew operations

  • 40+ hours of Part 135 ground school

  • Defined Pilot Flying and Pilot Monitoring roles

HOW CAN 69 HOURS OF CROSS-COUNTRY CREW FLYING EXPAND YOUR SKILLS?

Different airports. Different weather. Complex airspace. Changing ATC environments. IFR routing. Fuel decisions. Alternates. Approach choices. Workload management. Diversions. Crew coordination.

​

No flight school can manufacture real-world experience on command. It can create more opportunities for a pilot to plan, decide, adapt, communicate, and learn.

​

That is the purpose of the cross-country portion of the program.

The Transition Program is built around a technically advanced multi-engine platform with G1000 avionics, autopilot, flight director, retractable landing gear, constant-speed propellers, and twin-engine systems.

​

The point is not the airplane by itself. The value is using a consistent and complex platform to build systems awareness, automation discipline, performance planning, and workload management.

THE FLIGHT ENDS.
THE EXPERIENCE DOESN'T.

Flight time is logged in the airplane.

​

Experience is built when the pilot can explain what happened, what met the standard, what did not, and what changes need to be applied on the next mission.
