Two Part 135's?

135.301(b) If a pilot being checked under this subpart fails any of the required maneuvers, the person giving the check may give additional training to the pilot during the course of the check. In addition to repeating the maneuvers failed, the person giving the check may require the pilot being checked to repeat any other maneuvers that are necessary to determine the pilot's proficiency. If the pilot being checked is unable to demonstrate satisfactory performance to the person conducting the check, the certificate holder may not use the pilot, nor may the pilot serve, as a flight crewmember in operations under this part until the pilot has satisfactorily completed the check.

Now that I can buy - of course if you're being literal this also seems to imply that if you fail a check at an IFR company you can't then go work at a VFR company until you've passed a 297 again...

Almost sounds like the regulations are confusing.

I suspect that this might have been one of the regs that might have been missed in the update, mean, reading literally, if you fail a check ride you have to pass that particular check ride (theoretically in that airplane, and at that company) before you can do any other 135 work. So if company X fires you because you couldn't pass the single pilot IFR check ride in the space shuttle - then theoretically you're done until you pass that particular check ride...

I guess it depends on what "the check" means - does it mean that particular check, or any .293/.297/.299
 
Good question. my take is if you fail a ride and get fired you would have to pass another check, not necessarily with the same operator.
But, shock shock, I've been wrong before.

The shuttle is single pilot?
