I started my private pilot training under Part 61 and I want to train at a part 141 flight school. How much of my training credit can I transfer?
According to FAR 141.77 paragraph 2: “…The credit given that student for the previous pilot experience and knowledge shall not exceed more than 25% of the curriculum requirements and must be based upon a proficiency test or knowledge test or both conducted by the receiving pilot school.” Back to top I don’t understand what my flight instructor is telling me to do. This is a very important issue to address right away. Safe flying depends on clear precise and understandable communication between you and your flight instructor. If at any time you are uncertain about what he/she is asking you to do, stop and request a clearer explanation before attempting any maneuver or procedure. In fact, you should have a clear understanding of the lesson and the maneuvers you will learn before ever leaving the ground. Most good flight instructors know that teaching takes place on the ground and not in the air.
