    A pilot can obtain an Instrument Rating (IR) by completing simulator training, logging 40+ hours of instrument flight, and passing DGCA exams. It is an additional certification required for flying in low-visibility conditions.

    IR allows pilots to navigate using cockpit instruments instead of visual references. It is crucial for commercial pilots, enabling them to fly in bad weather and improving safety standards in aviation.
