You may pause or stop a module at any time and resume at the same place at a later date. You can also revisit completed modules. We will closely monitor your progress and are available via phone or email to assist you. Once you have successfully completed the theory course modules, we will arrange your online theory examination.

Phase 2: Operations Manual and Practical Flight Assessment
Operations Manual
We provide you with our excellent Operations Manual template resources to assist you in writing this CAA required document and will guide and support you through the process of shaping the document to suit your operations.
The Practical Flight Assessment
The Practical Flight Assessment is primarily safety focused and tests a candidate’s flying skill and safe operational ability. This is set against the candidate’s company Operations Manual. 3iC will provide you with close support and guidance documents leading up to the assessment so nothing will come as a surprise to you. Your Assessor will be looking for safe and competent flying – not amazing hand flying skills and will quickly put you at your ease to ensure that you perform to your maximum capability.
To ease you into the assessment, we can provide an hour of pre-assessment flight training.
The Flight Assessment process takes approximately 1hr.
Operational Authorisation Application
Once you have completed the process, you can then apply to the CAA for an Operational Authorisation.
