Flying Instructors & Examiners A place for instructors to communicate with one another because some of them get a bit tired of the attitude that instructing is the lowest form of aviation, as seems to prevail on some of the other forums!

When you sign a licence for Revalidation, all you are signing for is to confirm that the holder has met the requirements for Revalidation.

There are no specific requirements for the 'Refresher Training', nor any standard of performance to achieve.

In this respect, you are simply signing to confirm that you have seen Logbook evidence of at least an hour of 'Refresher Training', within 12 months of the date of expiry of the SEP Class Rating.

FCL 740 says that you must train for at least one hour. Who will decide if the adequate training is one hour or more than that? The FI.

If you sign the licence as the FI who has trained the pilot, you implicitly but necessarily endorse the fact that the training was adequate.

If you sign the licence as a FE who has not trained the student, you just check that the logbook shows at least one hour of training etc., there is no other responsibility with you.

No you don't!

It doesn't say anywhere that the 'refresher training' has to achieve any particular standard or goal, other than be an hour, or more in duration. The word 'adequate' is not used.

Any more, and we're doing our own 'gold plating'.

Adequate meaning at least 1 hour, which in the UK may according to the Alt AMC be up to 3 flights with the same instructor with an agregate of at least 1 hour. Nothing Else! The signature in the log book is to comply with AMC.FCL 050.
