Part FCL Annex I - Flight Crew Licencing

deliver effective UPRT, it is beneficial for the instructor to have first-hand experience of the critical
psychological and physiological human factors, which might be present during recoveries from
developed upsets. These human factors (effects of unusual acceleration, such as variations from
normal 1G flight, the difficulty to perform counter-intuitive actions, and the management of the
associated stress response) can only be experienced during training in an aeroplane because FFSs
are not capable of reproducing sustained accelerations. Completion of the advanced UPRT course in
accordance with FCL.745.A would provide such experience and is therefore useful for instructors
providing instruction for the issue of a TRI or an SFI certificate.
FCL.910.FI FI - Restricted privileges
(a) An FI shall have his or her privileges limited to conducting flight instruction under the
supervision of an FI for the same category of aircraft nominated by the DTO or the ATO for
this purpose, in the following cases:
(1) for the issue of the PPL and LAPL;
(2) in all integrated courses at PPL level, in case of aeroplanes and helicopters;
(3) for class and type ratings for single-pilot, single-engine aircraft, except for single-pilot
high-performance complex aeroplanes;
(4) for the night, towing or aerobatic ratings.
(b) While conducting training under supervision, in accordance with (a), the FI shall not have
the privilege to authorise student pilots to conduct first solo flights and first solo cross-
country flights.
(c) The limitations in (a) and (b) shall be removed from the FI certificate when the FI has
completed at least:
(1) for the FI(A), 100 hours of flight instruction in aeroplanes or TMGs and, in addition
has supervised at least 25 student solo flights;
(2) for the FI(H) 100 hours of flight instruction in helicopters and, in addition has
supervised at least 25 student solo flight air exercises;
(3) for the FI(As), 15 hours or 50 take-offs of flight instruction covering the full training
syllabus for the issue of a PPL(As).
FCL.910.MCCI MCCI - Restricted privileges
The privileges of the holder of an MCCI certificate shall be restricted to the FNPT II/III MCC, FTD 2/3 or
FFS in which the MCCI training course was taken.
The privileges may be extended to other FSTDs representing further types of aircraft when the holder
has completed the practical training of the MCCI course on that type of FNPT II/III MCC, FTD 2/3 or
FFS.
FCL.910.SFI SFI - Restricted privileges
The privileges of SFIs shall be restricted to the FTD 2/3 or FFS of the aircraft type in which the SFI
training course was taken.
The privileges may be extended to other FSTDs representing further types of the same category of
aircraft if the holders have:
(a) completed the simulator content of the relevant type rating course;
(b) completed the relevant parts of the technical training and the FSTD content of the flight
instruction syllabus of the applicable TRI course;
(c) conducted on a complete type rating course at least 3 hours of flight instruction related to
the duties of an SFI on the applicable type under the supervision and to the satisfaction of a
TRE or an SFE qualified for this purpose.
The privileges of the SFI shall be extended to further variants in accordance with the OSD if the SFI
has completed the type relevant parts of the technical training and the FSTD content of the flight
instruction syllabus of the applicable TRI course.
FCL.910.STI STI - Restricted privileges
The privileges of STIs shall be restricted to the FSTD in which the STI training course was taken.
The privileges may be extended to other FSTDs representing further types of aircraft if in the period of
12 months immediately preceding the application the holders have:
(a) completed the FSTD content of the CRI or TRI course on the class or type of aircraft for
which instructional privileges are sought;
(b) passed in the FSTD on which flight instruction is to be conducted, the applicable section of
the proficiency check in accordance with Appendix 9 to this Annex for the appropriate class
or type of aircraft.
For STIs(A) instructing on BITD only, the proficiency check shall include only the exercises
appropriate for the skill test for the issue of a PPL(A);
(c) conducted, on a CPL, an IR, a PPL or a class or type rating course, at least 3 hours of
flight instruction under the supervision of an FI, a CRI(A), an IRI or a TRI nominated by the
ATO for this purpose, including at least 1 hour of flight instruction that is supervised by an
FIE in the appropriate aircraft category.
FCL.910.TRI TRI - Restricted privileges
(a) General. If the TRI training is carried out in FSTDs only, the privileges of TRIs shall be
restricted to training in FSTDs. This restriction shall however include the following

(2) landing training, provided that the TRI training course has included the training
specified in point FCL.930. TRI(a)(4)(ii); or
(3) the training flight specified in point FCL.060(c)(2), provided that the TRI training
