It can be done before or after the issuance of your piggy back.
Great news, thx a lot.
So if I happen to find a local FAA CFI that advertizes BFRs on say B206 and R22
would he be eligible to do my BFR in an HU269 (my type rating),
e.g. must the FAA CFI have a
type rating for the helicopter type he conducts a BFR in?
At face value thsi might sound a bit counter intuitive, but he's not training me, only verifyng my piloting skills in a similar aircraft, albeit different type.
