SUBJECT CATEGORY:
Pilot, Flight Instructor, and Pilot School Certification; Correction
DATES: These corrections are effective on October 20, 2009.
DOCUMENT SUMMARY:
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is making several corrections to its ``Pilot, Flight Instructor, and Pilot School Certification'' final rule published in the Federal Register on August 21, 2009. The FAA corrections include standardizing certain part 61 time period durations from ``60 days'' to now read ``2 calendar months.'' We are also correcting an omission and errors to the prerequisite eligibility requirements for use of flight simulators. Additionally, we are correcting the duration of a student pilot certificate to 60 calendar months for a student pilot seeking a sport pilot certificate. Finally, we are correcting a sentence in the preamble to conform with the final rule regarding the use of flight training devices.
SUMMARY:
Pilot, Flight Instructor, and Pilot School Certification; Correction
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
Background
The FAA published a final rule in the Federal Register, entitled ``Pilot, Flight Instructor, and Pilot School Certification'' on August 21, 2009 (74 FR 42500). That final rule made revisions to the training, qualification, certification, and operating rules for pilots, flight instructors, ground instructors, and pilot schools in part 61, part 91, and part 141. The FAA's intention was to update and clarify certain training and qualification rules for pilots, flight instructors, ground instructors, and pilot schools ensuring a better understanding of those rules relating to aircraft operations in the National Airspace System (NAS). However, the published final rule contained some inadvertent errors that we are now correcting.
In the amendatory instructions to Sec. 61.3, we stated that we were revising paragraph (c)(2)(xii). However, paragraph (c)(2)(xii) is a new subparagraph in Sec. 61.3. We are correcting the amendatory instruction to state that we are adding the new paragraph.
We revised Sec. 61.39(a)(6)(i) to change the time period from ``60 days'' to read ``2 calendar months.'' Since the publication of the final rule, the FAA has received numerous inquiries about this difference where Sec. 61.39(a)(6)(i) reads ``2 calendar months'' and other sections reference ``60 days.'' This conforming change should have been in the published final rule. For these reasons, we are now correcting Sec. Sec. 61.99, 61.109, 61.129, and 61.313 to revise the references to ``60 days'' to read ``2 calendar months.'' We are also adding clarifying language to these sections that the flight training must be conducted with an authorized instructor, which is the intent of Sec. 61.39(a)(6)(1) and the definition of ``flight training'' in Sec. 61.1. This correction will parallel Sec. Sec. 61.99, 61.109, 61.129, and 61.313 with the new Sec. 61.39(a)(6)(i), as originally intended.
In the preamble to the final rule, we stated: ``The requirement that a minimum of a Level 5 flight training device be used if a flight training device is used for the practical test conforms with existing FAA policy.'' (Id. at 42522.) This sentence is not correct. The sentence should read: ``The requirement that a minimum of a Level 5 flight training device be used if a flight simulator is used for any portion of the practical test conforms with existing FAA policy.'' This corrected sentence now parallels Sec. 61.64(b)(4), (d)(4), and (f)(4).
In the final rule, we intended to consolidate and clarify the uses of flight simulators and flight training devices from Sec. 61.63(e), (f), and (g) and Sec. 61.157(g), (h), and (i) into a new Sec. 61.64 without substantive changes to the uses of or prerequisite eligibility requirements to flight simulators and flight training devices. However, the language used in Sec. 61.64(a)(1)(iii), (c)(1)(iii), and (e)(1)(iii) requires the use of a qualified and approved Level C flight simulator if a flight simulator is used for ``any portion of the practical test.'' This change from the previous requirement in Sec. 61.63 and Sec. 61.157 was not intended. We are correcting Sec. 61.64(a)(1)(iii), (c)(1)(iii), and (e)(1)(iii) to require the use of a qualified and approved Level C flight simulator if a flight simulator is used for the entire practical test, as previously required.
Additionally, when we established Sec. 61.64(a)(2) and Sec. 61.64(a)(3), we inadvertently omitted one of the prerequisite eligibility requirements from old Sec. 61.63(e)(4)(ii)(C) and Sec. 61.157(g)(3)(ii)(C). We are correcting Sec. 61.64(a)(2) and Sec. 61.64(a)(3) to add the previously available prerequisite option for pilots who have logged ``at least 2,000 hours of flight time, of which 500 hours is in turbinepowered airplanes of the same class of airplane for which the type rating is sought.''
In the final rule, we inadvertently omitted the clarifying phrase ``as appropriate'' in Sec. 61.64(a)(4). To prevent any confusion as to the intent of the rule, we are adding the clarifying phase ``as appropriate'' in Sec. 61.64(a)(4). This section applies when the applicant does not meet the prerequisite eligibility requirement for either a turbojet airplane or a turbopropeller type rating.
We are making a formatting revision to the rule text in Sec. 61.64(a)(4)(i), (c)(3)(i), and (e)(3)(i) by replacing the period at the end of the paragraph and replace it with semicolon and adding the word ``or''. We are also modifying the text in Sec. 61.64(a)(4)(ii), (c)(3)(ii), and (e)(3)(ii). These changes will clarify that the rule still provides for partial use of the aircraft for performing the preflight inspection, normal takeoff, normal instrument landing system approach, missed approach, and normal landing tasks, or the applicant will receive the supervised operating experience.
We are also making a minor correction to Sec. 61.19(b)(3). Section 61.19(b)(3) provides that for student pilots seeking a glider or balloon rating that the student pilot certificate does not expire until 60 calendar months after the month of the date issued, regardless of the person's age. Because a sport pilot certificate holder is not required to hold a medical certificate, we are including student pilots seeking a sport pilot certificate in this rule.
We are also making a further clarification to Sec. 61.157(f)(2)(ii) and (iii). The purpose of this correction is to clarify that an Aircrew Program Designee or Training Center Evaluator may be authorized to conduct competency and/or proficiency checks required under part 121, part 135, or subpart K of part 91.
