FAA IR in private turboprop airplane
Hey guys lets see if i can get any reliable info on this, so i can work a way around.
Lets say a validated faa private, wants to get a ir rating in the plane he just bought wich happens to be a turboprop single engine, 6 seats, complex, high performance.
He completed bfr, got a complex and high performance endorsment, and wants to hire a instructor who is a airline pilot and faa examiner, never flew the airplane but its not a problem, he can fly it with no problem.
Now this would be done in FAA land, this means you need a visa and a tsa.
Is this possible at all, the guy has a student visa for a flight school, but no tsa, yet.
Will it be possible to get a TSA on a turboprop, do the ir rating with the school instructor/faa examiner (so you are linked to the student visa).
And be able to do all this without a instruction insurance, i dont think anyone will insure the instructor, because he doesnt have any hours on type.
The plane will have all documents, i just dont know if the faa asks it to be insured for instruction also.
Thank you
