INSTRUMENT RATING
The Instrument Rating is a great tool for career and pleasure oriented pilots alike. With Nationwide you can complete instrument training in as little as 10 days. After earning an instrument rating you will have the ability to fly under "Instrument Flight Rules", or IFR. You will be better educated to make decisions about flying in and around adverse weather conditions, providing you with many more flying days per year. For students who are also aircraft owners, the addition of an instrument rating can decrease insurance rates by as much as 25 percent!
