1-Day Flight Review Course

The FAA flight review required by Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) 61.56 is to provide a regular evaluation of pilot skills and aeronautical knowledge. AC 61-98B states that the flight review is intended to offer pilots the opportunity to design a personal currency and proficiency program in consultation with a certificated flight instructor (CFI). The flight review is the aeronautical equivalent of a regular medical checkup and ongoing health improvement program. Like a physical exam, a flight review may have certain “standard” features (e.g., a review of specific regulations and maneuvers). However, just as the physician should tailor the exam and follow-up to the individual’s characteristics and needs, the CFI should tailor the flight review and any follow-up plan for training and proficiency to each pilot’s skill, experience, aircraft, and personal flying goals.
