OBJECTIVE: REVIEW THE CERTIFICATE AND DOCUMENTS AND MINIMUM EQUIPMENT KNOWLEDGE TASKS IN THE PRIVATE AND COMMERCIAL PRACTICAL TEST STANDARDS AND DETERMINE WHAT IS SATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE.

PREFLIGHT PREPARATION A. TASK:CERTIFICATES & DOCUMENTS I. AREA OF OPERATION: PREFLIGHT PREPARATION A. TASK:CERTIFICATES & DOCUMENTS 1. pilot airworthiness 2. aircraft airworthiness WE WILL USE THE TASKS FROM THE PRIVATE AND COMMERCIAL PTS’S FOR OUR DISCUSSION. WE WILL START OUR DISCUSS WITH AREA OF OPERATION I, TASK A, OF THE PRIVATE PTS. THIS TASK IS ALMOST IDENTICAL TO THE COMMERCIAL PTS. THE COMMERCIAL PTS WAS MODIFIED AND THE MINIMUM EQUIPMENT TASK WAS INCORPORATED WITHIN THE CERTIFICATES AND DOCUMENTS TASK. WE NOTE THAT THIS TASK HAS TWO MAJOR ELEMENTS. ELEMENT 1 a. PILOT CERTIFICATE, PRIVILEGES AND LIMITATIONS. b. MEDICAL CERTIFICATE, CLASS AND DURATION. c. PILOT LOGBOOK OR FLIGHT RECORD, REQUIRED ENTRIES. ELEMENT 2 a. AIRWORTHINESS AND REGISTRATION CERTIFICATES. b. OPERATING LIMITS. c. WEIGHT AND BALANCE. d. AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES

THE APPLICANT SHOULD EXPLAIN THAT “AD’S” ARE DOCUMENTED AND CAN BE FOUND IN THE AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE RECORDS.

Minimum Equipment List OUR NEXT DISCUSSION WILL BE ABOUT MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST. LET’S WATCH THIS VIDEO Minimum Equipment List

MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST EXHIBITS KNOWLEDGE PART 91 MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST REQUIRED INSTRUMENTS INOPERATIVE EQUIPMENT SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMIT THIS WOULD COMPLETE THE TESTING OF THIS TASK. LET’S NOW GO TO TASK G, MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST IN THE PRIVATE PTS.

FAR PART 91.205 GENERAL VISUAL FLIGHT RULES(DAY) VISUAL FLIGHT RULES(NIGHT) THIS TASK WAS INCORPORATED INTO TASK A IN THE COMMERCIAL PTS. FROM THE PRIVATE PILOT LEVEL WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THE APPLICANT UNDERSTANDS WHAT MUST BE FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY IN THE AIRCRAFT IN ORDER TO BE SAFE AND LEGAL. THE FIRST ELEMENT ASKS US TO TEST THE APPLICANT’S KNOWLEDGE OF THE REQUIRED INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT FOR DAY AND NIGHT VFR FLIGHT. THE APPLICANT SHOULD EXPLAIN THAT THE OPERATIVE EQUIPMENT MUST MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF FAR 91.205, EQUIPMENT LIST FOR THE AIRCRAFT AS PER THE AIRCRAFT FLIGHT MANUAL, REQUIREMENTS FOR THE TYPE OPERATION, AND ANY ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS PLACED ON THE AIRCRAFT BY AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES.

INOPERATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT FAR 91.213 MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST WITHOUT A MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST THE NEXT ELEMENT HAS US TEST THE APPLICANT’S KNOWLEDGE OF PROCEDURES FOR OPERATING WITH INOPERATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT. QUESTION: HOW DO YOU TEST THIS ELEMENT? ANSWER: POSSIBLY SETTING UP A SCENARIO. YOU FLY TO PODONCK AIRPORT AND HAVE A $45.00 HAMBURGER. AS YOU ARE TAXIING OUT YOU NOTICE THE TURN COORDINATOR IS INOPERATIVE. CAN YOU LEGALLY TAKEOFF? NO, NOT UNTIL YOU COMPLY WITH PART 91.213(D): EQUIPMENT NOT REQUIRED AS PART OF THE VFR-DAY TYPE CERTIFICATION INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT UNDER WHICH THE AIRCRAFT WAS TYPE CERTIFICATE; INDICATED AS REQUIRED ON THE AIRCRAFT’S EQUIPMENT LIST OR ON THE KINDS OF OPERATIONS EQUIPMENT FOR THE OPERATION TO BE CONDUCTED; REQUIRED BY 91.205 OR ANY OTHER RULE FOR THE SPECIFIC KIND OF FLIGHT OPERATIONS; OR REQUIRED TO BE OPERATIONAL BY AN AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE.

INOPERATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT FAR 91.213 MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST WITHOUT A MINIMUM EQUIPMENT LIST ONCE THE 91.205(D) REQUIREMENTS ARE MEET THEN THE INOPERATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT ARE “REMOVED FROM THE AIRCRAFT, THE COCKPIT CONTROL PLACARD, AND THE MAINTENANCE RECORDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH PART 43.9; OR DEACTIVATED AND PLACARD “INOPERATIVE”. IF DEACTIVATION OF THE INOPERATIVE INSTRUMENT OR EQUIPMENT INVOLVES MAINTENANCE, IT MUST BE ACCOMPLISHED AND RECORDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH PART 43 OF THIS CHAPTER. FINALLY A DETERMINATION IS MADE BY A PILOT OR CERTIFIED MECHANIC THAT THE INOPERATIVE INSTRUMENT OR EQUIPMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A HAZARD TO THE AIRCRAFT. HIDDEN SLIDE FOR NOTES

THE LAST ELEMENT OF THIS TASK REQUIRES US TO TEST THE APPLICANT’S KNOWLEDGE OF THE REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR OBTAINING A SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMIT. QUESTION: WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMIT? ANSWER: A SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMIT IS A SPECIAL AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE ISSUED FOR AN AIRCRAFT THAT MAY NOT CURRENTLY MEET THE APPLICABLE AIRWORTHINESS REQUIREMENTS BUT IS SAFE FOR A SPECIFIC FLIGHT. SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMITS ARE ISSUED TO ALLOW THE AIRCRAFT TO BE FLOWN TO A BASE WHERE REPAIRS, ALTERATIONS, OR MAINTENANCE CAN BE PERFORMED; FOR DELIVERING OR EXPORTING THE AIRCRAFT; OR FOR EVACUATING AN AIRCRAFT FROM AN AREA OF IMPENDING DANGER. YOU OBTAIN A SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMIT FROM YOUR LOCAL FLIGHT STANDARDS DISTRICT OFFICE.
