Blanket Type Ratings

Blanket type ratings basically allow you to fly most of the planes you see at your local flight centre. When you get your pilots licence you are usually issued a endorsement condition saying you can fly, “all single pilot single engine non-high performance land aircraft”. However, if you want to fly any high performance aircraft, or an aircraft with a minimum flight crew of 2, you will need  an individual type rating.
