Single-Multi Flight Track

This track results in a multiengine commercial license but focuses on obtaining the single-engine commercial license first. This way, the student may obtain a Certificated Flight Instructor (CFI) rating sooner and join the Embry‑Riddle instructor team.

  • FACR 121 Private Single Flight (1 credit)
  • FACR 221 Instrument Pilot Single-Engine (1 credit)
  • FACR 321 Commercial Pilot Single-Engine (1 credit)
  • FACR 323 Commercial Pilot Multiengine Add-On (1 credit)

For detailed information on these courses, see Flight Core Courses section of the  in the Catalog. 

Fastrack Certificated Flight Instructor/Instrument Instructor (CFI/II)

This special program offered every summer allows selected students to obtain their Certificated Flight Instructor (CFI) and Instrument Instructor (II) ratings in the summer of their sophomore or junior year. Each of these students is guaranteed an interview with the Embry‑Riddle Flight Department, and nearly all are hired.

This program pairs Fastrack CFI/II students. As a team, they learn the best ways to teach.

  • FACR 417 Certificated Flight Instructor (taken after FACR 321 in the Single Engine Track or FA 326CR in the Multiengine Track)

For detailed information on this path, see the "Flight" section at the bottom of the  in the Catalog.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, an FAA Testing Center is conveniently located on campus in the Advanced Flight Simulation Center, Room 101 Delta. Testing Center hours are from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
No, your flight block is scheduled to accommodate your required academic courses.
For testing fees and questions, you may call the Testing Center at 386-226-4945.
You will start your flight training at Embry-Riddle in our single-engine instrument course, FACR 221. You will also need to register for AS 221.
Any student who does not finish within the semester will continue in the same flight course the following semester. Refer to the Embry-Riddle Registration of Classes booklet, which lists the classes and times for the semester.
If a student arrives at Embry-Riddle with prior flight experience, typically we will evaluate the experience to see if we are able to grant training credits.

Most of the flight courses at Embry-Riddle are FAA approved under 14 CFR Part 141.

Part 141 requires a much more structured training program than is usually required for general aviation training. Each course is submitted to the FAA and approved on an individual basis. Formal ground schools are required, and must be delivered in a timely manner and sequenced logically according to the associated flight training activities for that course.

In return for this additional level of FAA scrutiny, Embry-Riddle can graduate students from our flight courses with less flight time than what is normally required. This reduces the number of hours traditionally spent in an airplane, thus reducing costs to students.


After completing a flight course, you register in a flight block for the next flight course in your training track. This may be done anytime during a semester provided that pre-/co-requisites are met.
You will need to take your documentation to the Flight Scheduling Office located in the Flight Operations building, Room 115.
