SEP Revalidation dual flight
Hello all!
I am a FI(R) and was recently asked if i could fly the dual flight to revalidate a SEP rating:
"Revalidation of single-pilot single-engine class ratings.
(1) Single-engine piston aeroplane class ratings and TMG ratings. For
revalidation of single-pilot single-engine piston aeroplane class ratings or
TMG class ratings the applicant shall:
(i) within the 3 months preceding the expiry date of the rating, pass a
proficiency check in the relevant class in accordance with Appendix 9
to this Part with an examiner; or
(ii) within the 12 months preceding the expiry date of the rating, complete
12 hours of flight time in the relevant class, including:
– 6 hours as PIC;
– 12 take-offs and 12 landings; and
– a training flight of at least 1 hour with a flight instructor (FI) or a class
rating instructor (CRI). Applicants shall be exempted from this flight
if they have passed a class or type rating proficiency check or skill
test in any other class or type of aeroplane. "
I've been reading through CAP 804 for my privileges:
"An FI shall have his/her privileges limited to conducting flight instruction under
the supervision of an FI for the same category of aircraft nominated by the ATO
for this purpose, in the following cases:
(1) for the issue of the PPL, SPL, BPL and LAPL;
(2) in all integrated courses at PPL level, in case of aeroplanes and helicopters;
(3) for class and type ratings for single-pilot, single-engine aircraft, class and
group extensions in the case of balloons and class extensions in the case of
sailplanes;"
..and it seems like i can give instruction class ratings.. but another issue i'm having is that this dual flight is to be flown on their own plane -a Tail-dragger. and i've never flown one! I'm thinking i cannot provide instruction on a tail-dragger if i've never been signed off in one!
Can somebody please give some advice on this one, Thanks!
