7 FIEQTP OBJECTIVE.
7.1 The FAA requires that flight instructors attain additional qualifications in order to instruct initial flight instructor applicants. The qualifications of § 61.195 for training first-time
5 flight instructor applicants include a requirement to have held a flight instructor certificate for at least 24 calendar months. Completion of the FIEQTP provides an avenue by which flight instructors may qualify in less than 24 calendar months to provide instruction to initial flight instructor applicants.
7.2 The FIEQTP is designed to train and validate the flight instructor’s ability to instruct initial flight instructor applicants. The FIEQTP is not intended to repeat the foundational training a person receives in preparation for the flight instructor practical test. The flight instructor practical test focuses on a person’s ability to teach pilots how to fly and achieve a level of flight proficiency sufficient to obtain pilot certificates and ratings. The FIEQTP focuses on a person’s ability to teach pilots how to achieve instructional proficiency.
7.3 As discussed in this AC, § 61.195(h)(3) provides specific subjects that must be included in the FIEQTP curriculum that focus on this instructional proficiency. The FIEQTP is designed to enhance the flight instructor’s teaching skills specific to preparing initial flight instructor applicants for the practical test.
8 TRAINING PROGRAM: GENERAL.
8.1 Training Program Overview. The FIEQTP is one of the methods by which a flight instructor may become qualified to instruct initial flight instructor applicants. FIEQTPs are conducted under part 141 or 142. Therefore, each training provider seeking to offer an FIEQTP must submit the required documentation under part 141 or 142, respectively, for FAA approval. See paragraph 9 for d etailed information pertaining to program approval.
8.2 Aircraft Category Specialization. Training provider applicants should focus their program on a particular aircraft category rating (e.g., flight instructor airplane, rotorcraft, or glider). Enrollees should seek the appropriate FIEQTP that corresponds to the aircraft category rating held on their flight instructor certificate.
8.3 Enrollment Prerequisites for the FIEQTP Enrollee. Applicants must meet certain conditions to enroll in an FIEQTP. Pursuant to § 61.195(h)(2), a person must:
1. Meet the eligibility requirements prescribed in § 61.183;
2. Hold the appropriate flight instructor certificate and rating;
3. Meet the requirements of the part under which the flight training is provided; and
4. Have given at least 200 hours of flight training as a flight instructor for training in preparation for an airplane, rotorcraft, or powered-lift rating, in accordance with § 61.195(h)(2)(i)(A), or have given at least 80 hours of flight training as a flight instructor for training in preparation for a glider rating, in accordance with § 61.195(h)(2)(i)(B).
Note: Enrollees who hold more than one aircraft category and class (if a class is required) on their flight instructor certificate need only satisfy one FIEQTP course
6 for one of the aircraft category and class ratings held on that person’s flight instructor certificate.
8.4 Learning Objectives. This AC provides guidance for the development and approval of a training curriculum that satisfies the requirements for the proposed FIEQTP, including the learning objectives advanced by the subject areas listed in § 61.195(h)(3)(i) and (ii), respectively. See paragraphs 12 and 14 for detailed information pertaining to program learning objectives.
9 O BTAINING PROGRAM APPROVAL.
9.1 FAA/Training Provider Coordination. FIEQTPs must be approved and conducted under part 141 or 142. Therefore, parts 141 and 142 CHs seeking approval for an FIEQTP should work with their assigned FAA Principal Operations Inspector (POI) or Training Center Program Manager (TCPM) to establish and maintain the program through each part’s curriculum requirements, respectively.
9.2 FIEQTPs Conducted Under Part 141. For the purposes of this AC, where the FAA refers to “part 141 pilot school,” it should be understood that the guidance applies to part 141 provisional pilot schools as well. Part 141 subpart C p rescribes the curriculum and TCO requirements of a course of training offered by a part 141 pilot school.
Section 141.53 requires the Administrator’s approval for the outline of each training course for which certification is sought. Section 141.55 requires each pilot school or provisional pilot school to meet the minimum ground and flight training time requirements in accordance with the appropriate part 141 appendix, in this case, part 141 appendix K. The FAA POI assigned to the part 141 pilot school or provisional pilot school approves the course curriculum and provides oversight to the school. The POI is the point of contact (POC) for coordination of an FIEQTP course. Refer to AC 141-1 for detailed information about part 141 TCOs and syllabi content.
9.3 FI EQTPs Conducted Under Part 142. Part 142 subpart B prescribes the curriculum and syllabus requirements for training programs offered by a part 142 training center.
Training curriculums for a training center’s FIEQTP must meet the requirements found in § 142.39 and part 142 subpart F. The FAA TCPM assigned to the training center CH is responsible for curriculum oversight and approval and should be the POC for coordination of an FIEQTP.
9.4 FI EQTP Curriculum Approval. The Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) or the certificate management office (CMO) will conduct a review of a submitted FIEQTP curriculum. Inspectors assigned to pilot schools or training centers will refer to the appropriate DRS guidance for approving a training curriculum. The POI or TCPM may grant FAA approval for the FIEQTP. To do so, the POI or TCPM must determine that the proposed FIEQTP meets the requirements of § 61.195(h)(3). Additionally, because the FIEQTP is conducted under part 141 or 142, any equipment utilized (e.g., an FFS or FTD) must comply with § 141.41 or § 142.59, as appropriate. If the FIEQTP is approved under part 141, the FAA will issue a Letter of Authorization (LOA) to the part 141 pilot school or provisional pilot school. If the FIEQTP is approved under part 142, the FAA
7 will issue a training specification (TSpec) to the part 142 training center. The CH should submit any future revision to their respective POI or TCPM for approval.
10 FIEQTP INSTRUCTOR QUALIFICATIONS.
10.1 Program Instructor. Pursuant to § 61.195(h)(3)(vi), program instructors must hold a flight instructor or ground instructor certificate, as appropriate, and possess one of the following qualifications:
1. Serves as a chief instructor or assistant chief instructor in a part 141 pilot school;
2. Serves as a TCPM or an Assistant Training Center Program Manager (ATCPM) of a part 142 training center; or
3. Meets the qualifications of an assistant chief instructor pursuant to § 141.36(d).
10.2 Program Provider. Pursuant to § 61.195(h)(3), FIEQTPs must be approved and conducted under part 141 or 142. Therefore, FIEQTP providers must ensure that their instructors meet any applicable instructor qualifications required in parts 141 and 142, respectively.
11 END-OF-COURSE TESTS: GENERAL.
11.1 Requirements. Part 141 appendix K requires each person enrolled in a special preparation course to satisfactorily accomplish the stage checks and end-of-course tests in accordance with the school’s approved training course. Similarly, § 142.65(d) requires that each person enrolled in a training program curriculum must satisfactorily complete the requirements of that course. Therefore, an enrollee must demonstrate an understanding of the subject areas covered in the FIEQTP by satisfactorily completing an end-of-course written test and end-of-course instructional proficiency test. The following subparagraphs contain direction and guidance for these end-of-course tests, which should take place after each section of the academic portion of the course (i.e., the ground training portion and the flight training portion).
11.2 Procedures. The training provider should provide a description of the end-of-course tests and any stage checks that will be used to measure the enrollees’ proficiency. This discussion should identify and describe the form of test (e.g., individual paper tests handed out, tests presented on a screen, etc.). An example of an evaluation procedure description could state: “The enrollee will answer a series of multiple-choice questions related to this topic at the end of each section in which the topic was presented and again in the end-of-course written test. The test will be in printed form and handed to the enrollee for completion.”
11.3 End-of-Course Tests. Each flight instructor enrolled in the FIEQTP must satisfactorily complete an end-of-course written test specific to the ground training subjects in § 61.195(h)(3)(i) and an end-of-course instructional proficiency flight test specific to the flight training areas in § 61.195(h)(3)(ii), which are further discussed in paragraphs 13 and 15.
