Stay proficient
Prepare to return to flying.
This planner is not a flight review, IPC, endorsement, medical determination or authorization to act as PIC.
Four different questions—not one approval
- Flight review
- Periodic training and an instructor's satisfactory-completion endorsement, unless an applicable alternative or exception applies. Online study alone is not a completed flight review. FAA source
- Currency
- The applicable legal recent-experience requirements for a particular operation. A flight review does not automatically establish passenger or instrument currency. FAA source
- Proficiency
- The ability to perform the planned flight safely and consistently. Meeting a minimum record requirement does not by itself demonstrate that capability. FAA source
- IPC
- An instrument proficiency check addresses the applicable instrument recency pathway. It is not automatically a flight review; discuss both requirements with an appropriately qualified instructor. FAA source
