Only ever been to Simuflite but I'm pretty sure they offer a free RVSM class as well as many other free classes to anyone going through a training. Call wherever you're doing your training and ask them

Just because he is getting an SIC type doesn't mean he is going to a training center... It's only 3 landings and trip to the FSDO.

I would listen to Martha for an hour and get it done. Explain to your employer that you haven't had RVSM training and I would hope they would foot the bill. My Copilot isn't required to be trained but I gladly paid for it.

They are aware of it. But my biggest wuiestion was is it even required for the SIC. Like you said your copilot was required to have it but you took care of him. I will end up doing it eventually still.

I think it would depend on the RVSM LOA as someone posted earlier.

I applied for single pilot RVSM in our airplane. I have a single pilot type so SIC isn't required for anything other than insurance reasons. Unless the application asked for single pilot privileges (doubtful) I would say training is required. Check out the LOA and RVSM manuals.
