test flt vs check flt
Hi,
I am seeking some definitions about "Test Flight" and "After maintenance check flight".
IMHO:
- during Test Flight pilot tests something new on the airplane (new wings, new undercarriage, new tail, powerplant) or change in weight/balance. This pilot needs TST rating.
- during After maintenance check flight pilot just check function of all systems (flight after 100hrs maintenance, after overhaul etc.). Pilot just need proper type rating on that plane.
Am I right? I've seen document on EASA webpage that describe it exactly, but cant find it anymore...
Thanks for advice
