Flight Review (EASA / FAA)

[av8or_ch]

Hello FI's and FE's,

I am aware I may be in the wrong forum - if so I apologise!

I had a q question regarding my FAA PPL(A)+IR: I live in Europe and also hold an EASA Part-FCL PPL(A). These expire biannually and thus must be renewed with a FI. (FAA equivalent to FR).

Do you know, if an EASA Renewal flight counts as a FAA FR or will I need to do the later in addition to maintain my FAA privileges?

Thanks

Ken

The FAA flight review needs to be done by an FAA CFI.

Correct-the FAA biannual can be done on any aircraft of any registration (as long as the pilot is certified to fly it), but must be done with a FAA-certified FI.

I'm a US CFI living and flying in Europe. Yes, as mentioned, a FAA CFI has to give you the flight review. It can be done in Europe, in an European registrert aircraft, but done under the 14CFR PART 61.56, minimum one hour ground school and one hour flight.

"I live in Europe and also hold an EASA Part-FCL PPL(A). These expire biannually and thus must be renewed with a FI"

Just to confirm:

If an EASA Rating (not Licence) expires, it has to be renewed by a Proficiency Check (test) with a Flight Examiner (not Instructor).

One of the methods of preventing an EASA SEP Rating from expiring is to have, amongst other things, a training flight (or flights) of at least one hour with an EASA Instructor.
