14 CFR 61.417: Will my flight instructor certificate with a sport pilot rating list aircraft category and class ratings?
Where this section sits in the code
- Title 14—Aeronautics and Space
- CHAPTER I—FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
- SUBCHAPTER D—AIRMEN
- PART 61—CERTIFICATION: PILOTS, FLIGHT INSTRUCTORS, AND GROUND INSTRUCTORS
- Subpart K—Flight Instructors With a Sport Pilot Rating
Your flight instructor certificate does not list aircraft category and class ratings. When you successfully pass the practical test for a flight instructor certificate with a sport pilot rating, regardless of the aircraft privileges you seek, the FAA will issue you a flight instructor certificate with a sport pilot rating without any category and class ratings. The FAA will provide you with a logbook endorsement for the category and class of aircraft you are authorized to provide training in.
