14 CFR 61.56 (Flight review). Requirements at 61.57 (Recent flight experience) and JAR-FCL 1.026 (Amdt 2 - latest amdt)
can be met with during the one-hour flight requirement under 61.56. Does
not require a TSA-Assessment.
Follow instructions at FAA foreign license (sic) verification
webpage if not already in possession of a
61.75-certificate.
Ensure any existing 61.75-certificate states "
English Proficient" in section XIII.
Flight review can be circumvented by qualifying for an unrestricted US-Private Pilot Certificate
which does in most cases require a TSA-Assessment (see
61.39(c),
61.41,
61.1(b)(2)(iii) & 61.1(b)(3) and 61-
Subpart E.)
