Sport Pilot Program: End of February, 2005

More Than A Hundred Tests So Far

FAA reports that the new FAA Form 8710-11, for Airman Certification and/or Rating Application - Sport Pilot, is now available from FAA. It may be obtained from ASF-610 (Link below) and is a PDF file. Examiner and instructors are expected to use this form whenever performing sport pilot certification.

As of the end of February, 104 sport pilot tests have been taken by various applicants. A total of 52 sport pilot general knowledge tests have be administered with no failures which FAA believes is a great accomplish and reflects on the quality of the airman interested in becoming certified sport pilots said Martin Weaver, Manager-Light Sport Aviation Branch.

The sport pilot examiner availability list has been updated to reflect the additional designated pilot examiners that have added sport pilot examiner privileges to their qualifications. The next two sport pilot examiner initial courses have candidates selected and are planned before Sun & Fun.
