The Flight Review an instructional service designed to assess a pilot's knowledge and skills.  The objective is to ensure that pilots have the opportunity to ride with a flight instructor of their own choice for an appraisal of their pilot proficiency and to seek assistance or guidance if any deficiency is identified.
Requirements:  FAR 61.56(c) states that no pilot may act as pilot in command of an aircraft unless, since the beginning of the 24th calendar month before the month in which that pilot acts as pilot in command, that person has:

  • accomplished a flight review in an aircraft for which that pilot is rated by an appropriately rated instructor
  • a  logbook endorsed by the person who gave the review certifying that the person has satisfactorily completed the review

A flight review consists of a MINIMUM of 1 hour of flight instruction and 1 hour of ground instruction, and must include:

  • a review of the current general operating and flight rules of Part 91
  • a review of those maneuvers and procedures which, at the discretion of the person giving the review, are necessary for the pilot to demonstrate the safe exercise of the pilot certificate
