Endorsements

[GaTechKid]

I'm looking for at least 5 endorsements that a CFII can give but a CFI cannot. So far I've come up with:

1) Instrument Knowledge Test
2) Instrument Flight Proficiency/Practical Test
3) Flight Instructor Instrument Practical Test
4) Completion of an Instrument Proficiency Check

Are any of those choices incorrect and any help with a few more?

Although ATP applicants don't need an endorsement for a practical test, if the applicant for an ATP fails a practical test, they need an endorsement to take the re-check. That must come from a CFII.

Are you talking about formal "back of the book" endorsements? When a CFI signs a logbook for instruction given, that is also an "endorsement"

A CFII is required to endorse Instruction given that "counts" for "instrument training" or "instrument instruction " requirements for a certificate or rating and instruction that "counts" for instrument currency purposes in a sim or FTD.

don't forget that the CFII can give the endorsement for covering the deficient areas of the knowledge test.

That's the meaning I took from that question in my workbook. Thanks for the replies!

not always. if the applicant is using the CFII ride as his/her CFI initial. in that case, the recommending CFII must qualify to teach CFI initial

Is it possible for the MEI to be the someone's initial instructor rating? (Rare, sure, but is it possible?)

Yes. At ATP I'll earn my MEI first, CFII second, and then CFI.

Who's to say that a CFII can't do that?

a CFII can do that, just not any CFII. straight from 91.195(h).

 

[ERJ-135]

I believe you mean 61.195(h).

Be careful of #3. The CFII must be a CFII for at least 24 months and have given at least 200 hours of flight training as a flight instructor.

Ref: FAR 61.195 (h)(2)

yep, my bad. 61.195. nice catch.
