The above listed estimated cost is based on FAA requirements and reasonable expectations. It is not a "low ball" estimate based on FAA minimums! It includes all pilot supplies, books, charts, examiner fees, taxes and airport fees. For an additional fee, CRMatc can even provide low cost housing and transportation for full-time students.

This course provides a means of training pilots to cope with flying in restricted visibility. The pilot is taught to trust what is seen on the instruments.
