Hi,

Its possible, the plane doesnt need a type, you just need a complex and high performance endorsment.

Pilot is low time, faa ppl, and just wants to get the ir in a TP.

The plane is not going to be flying in US, its being taken to a foreign country, and being flown there with a PP/IR in FAA registry until its passed to national.

Contacted flightschoool, main issue is insurance for training. I think that if a instructor is insurance aprooved, wich they are, why the pilot in training should also need to have a insurance. The instructor is the person responsible.

Has the plane is not bought yet, probably we can get a insurance in the instructor name, that allows him to fly it in USA and that allows him to instruct.

So now we would have a pilot(the instructor) that is able to ferry while in USA and instruct, and who is student doesnt matter.

After the instrument rating, "student" his ready to ferry it, the owner coming along, outside of US land, no insurance needed.

Now to get insurance with foreign country is another deal.
