8 IMPORTANT INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE CASR PART 61 FLIGHT EXAMINER RATING BACKGROUND DURING THE EARLY TRANSITION PERIOD With the commencement of CASR Part 61 on the 1 st of September 2014, a new rating termed the Flight Examiner Rating has been introduced. The effective privileges of this rating are not dissimilar to the privileges afforded to the holder of a delegation under regulation 5.19(3) or 5.41(4) of the CAR The requirements for grant of a Flight Examiner Rating and the associated examiner endorsements are defined in CASR and CASR These requirements for grant include, amongst other things, that: a) the applicant must have completed a course of training that is conducted by CASA, which includes the content mentioned in the Part 61 Manual of Standards, and b) has successfully completed an interview conducted by CASA (for the Examiner Rating). During the early stages of the three year transition period, CASA Flying Standards Branch (FSB) will continue to develop a comprehensive course which meets the requirements for the grant of the CASR Part 61 Flight Examiner Rating. Successfully completing the CASA Flight Examiner Rating course will be required for all Flight Examiner Rating applicants, including those associated within a CAR 217. To ensure a training outcome which has relevance and adds value to all industry sectors, the continued development of the CASA Flight Examiner course(s) will: a) Involve highly experienced CAR 217 Flight Training Examiners (e.g. Boeing and Airbus Type Rating Examiners) and highly experienced General Aviation Examiners (FTEs), in the course development and delivery. This will ensure value and applicability to all industry sectors, b) Involve key industry stakeholders through the establishment of a working group, ensuring a consultative approach as the course is further developed, c) Involve the research, identification and integration of other National Aviation Authority best practice, d) Involve experienced educators, with postgraduate tertiary qualifications in the instructional design, and e) Apply competency based training and assessment principles. HOW CAN I EXERCISE THE PRIVILEGES OF A CASR PART 61 FLIGHT EXAMINER RATING? During the continued development of the CASA Flight Examiner Rating course, CASR Part 61 Flight Examiner Ratings or endorsements will not be issued by CASA (other than those transitioning). Alternatively, an approval as described within CASR (3) and CASR shall be issued to applicants where CASA is satisfied they hold the necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes (competency) to conduct the relevant flight tests and/or proficiency checks in accordance with the regulations. The CASR approval pathway provides no disruption to industry capability whilst the CASA Flight Examiner Rating course is further developed during early transition. That is, the privileges of the CASR approval are equivalent to those of the Examiner Rating. HOW DO I CONVERT MY CASR PART APPROVAL TO A PART 61 FLIGHT EXAMINER RATING? Once the CASA Flight Examiner Rating Course is fully developed and the holder of a CASR Part approval (for this purpose) wishes to transition to the CASR Part 61 Flight Examiner Rating, the holder must meet all requirements for grant of that rating as described in CASR and The applicant will be afforded recognition of the specific (relative to the individual) CASR approval process undergone, meaning on most occasions, the gap will be a requirement to successfully complete specified modules within the CASA Flight Examiner Rating course and a CASR Part 61 Flight Test as described in the CASA Flight Examiner Handbook. Equivalent experience means the applicant (normally associated with training and checking organisation) is able to clearly demonstrate, that they hold a level of experience that affords CASA an equal level of confidence that they have an ability to affect a safe outcome and accurate flight test decisions. Equivalent experience must be demonstrated for each individual attribute (row item) in the experience requirements. Where experience requirements are for a specified type, a similar type (manufacturer s model) may be considered. Where experience in an activity is specified, a likewise activity may be considered. Current means has exercised the privileges of the qualification regularly in the preceding period. Form 61-FEA 11/2014 Application for CASR Approval Privileges of Flight Examiner Rating Page 8 of 8
