121.1337; 121.1381; 121.1383; 121.1387; and 121.1391)

    1. An individual performance drill is a hands on training and
evaluation demonstration that is performed by each flight crewmember
using the specified emergency equipment.
    2. A group performance drill allows a flight crewmember to
participate as part of a group of persons completing a specific drill.
During these situations, it is not necessary for each flight crewmember
to complete each task in the performance drill. However, each flight
crewmember participant must observe the actions and activities of the
other persons who are completing the performance drill tasks.
    3. An observation drill is one during which a flight crewmember
observes a specific procedural drill being conducted by other persons
in a live setting or through an audio-visual medium.
    4. Table 3B provides a list of the drills and observations that are
required in each training curriculum. The frequency for recurrent
drills and observations is every 36 months. Attachment 4 of this
appendix contains the performance standards for each drill and
observation.
    5. Each flight crewmember must operate each exit on each aircraft
type on which the flight crewmember is to serve in both the normal and
emergency modes, including the actions and forces required in the
deployment of emergency evacuation slides.
    6. Each flight crewmember must complete the required emergency
training drills during the specified training periods, using those
items of installed emergency equipment for each aircraft type on which
the flight crewmember is to serve.
    7. Each piece of emergency equipment and training device must be in
its fully secured, pinned, bracketed, or stowed condition, as installed
on the aircraft, prior to being operated by each flight crewmember
during each performance drill. The removal and stowage of each piece of
emergency equipment may be completed separately from the performance
drill as part of the equipment mountings drill.
    8. Flight crewmembers must demonstrate proficiency by completing
each performance drill without reference to any guidance material or
instruction.

C. Determining the Level of Flight Simulation Training Device That Must
Be Used for Training, Evaluation, and Recent Experience (See Sec. Sec.
121.1345; 121.1347; 121.1349; and 121.1351)

    To use an FSTD for training, evaluation, and recent experience the
following general requirements must be met. The code shown in Table 3C
for the task or environment indicates the lowest FSTD qualification
level that may be used.
    1. General Requirements. In addition to the approval of the POI
required by part 121, to be used for any task or environment, an FSTD
must:
    (a) Have a qualification level assigned in accordance with part 60
of this chapter.
    (b) Be maintained in accordance with part 60 of this chapter.
    (c) Have all of the aircraft and FSTD systems installed and
operating that are necessary to complete the task or environment.

    (d) Be operated in accordance with Sec.  60.25 of this chapter.
Operation with missing, malfunctioning, or inoperative components.
    (e) Have the qualification level indicated in Table 3C, or a higher
qualification level, for the task or environment and the category of
training indicated. Certain tasks may be trained in an FSTD at a
different level than required for evaluating that specific task. The
instructor must observe the pilot perform the task to proficiency in
the level of FSTD required for the evaluation prior to the evaluation
by a check person.
    2. Loft Requirements. For Qualification LOFT, a level C or D FFS is
required. For Recurrent LOFT, a level B, C, or D may be used.
    3. Takeoff and Landing 90-Day Recency of Experience. The three
takeoffs and three landings required for maintaining or regaining 90-
day recency of experience must include at least one takeoff with a
simulated failure of the most critical engine, at least one landing
from a precision category approach to the lowest minimums authorized
for the certificate holder, at least one landing to a full stop, and at
least one visual traffic pattern and landing. For maintaining recency
of experience in a FFS, a level B, C, or D must be used. For regaining
recency of experience, a level C or D is required.
    4. FSTD Requirements for the Proficiency Test, Check, or Review.
    (a) The proficiency test administered at the conclusion of initial,
transition, conversion, upgrade, or requalification training must be
conducted in no more than two levels of FSTD.
    (b) The proficiency test, check, or review administered as part of
the recurrent qualification requirements may only be conducted in a
Level B or higher FFS.
    5. Experience Requirements for Allowing Credit for Level C Full
Flight Simulators. Where a Level D FFS is indicated in Table 3C, a
Level C FFS may be used to complete the training and the proficiency
test if the pilot applicant meets the following prerequisite experience
requirements:
    (a) For first time qualification in group, the pilot must have a
minimum of 1500 hours of flight time as a pilot in an aircraft,
including a minimum of 750 hours of multiengine time.
    (b) For upgrade to PIC, the pilot must have a minimum of 200 hours
in the aircraft type.
    (c) For SIC training and evaluation, the pilot must have a minimum
of 1500 hours as a pilot, 500 hours of multiengine time, and 500 hours
in the aircraft type as a flight crewmember.
    6. Seat Dependent Task Training. Seat dependent task training must
be provided for all check pilots, check captains, pilot flight
instructors, and for PIC and SIC if a certificate holder authorizes the
PIC to operate the aircraft from the right hand pilot seat and the SIC
to operate the aircraft from the left hand pilot seat. Seat dependent
task training must include all of the following:
    (a) At least one LOFT scenario operating from the opposite pilot
seat with qualified flight crewmember(s) occupying the remaining flight
deck positions.
    (b) The use of systems that involve the flight path or speed of the
aircraft; or
    (c) The use of systems that have controls not centrally located, or
are accessible or operable from only the left or from the right pilot
seat.
    (d) Each of the following tasks in the opposite pilot seat.
    (1) Preflight, including engine start.
    (2) Push back or power back, as appropriate for the certificate
holder.
    (3) Taxi.
    (4) Normal takeoff.
    (5) Rejected takeoff.
    (6) Takeoff with the failure of an engine.
    (7) Climb to, cruise at, or descent from an intermediate operating
altitude.
    (8) Precision instrument approach and landing.
    (9) Non-precision instrument approach and landing with an engine
failed.
    (10) Parking at a gate or jetway if appropriate for the certificate
holder.
    (11) For check pilots and pilot flight instructors authorized to
conduct training or evaluation functions, training and practice in
conducting flight training or flight checks from the left hand and
right hand pilot seats, including the required standard operating
procedures, abnormal procedures, non-normal procedures, and emergency
procedures sufficient to ensure competence to conduct the pilot
training and flight checks required by this sub-part; and
    (12) For check pilots and check captains who are authorized to
conduct operating experience or line checks in the airplane during
flight, the safety measures to be taken from either pilot seat for
emergency situations that are likely to develop during flight
operations.
    (13) Training and evaluation in the airplane is limited to
certificate holders operating in accordance with the deviation
described in Sec.  121.1345(b) through (e).
    7. The level of FSTD authorized for each of the tasks described in
paragraph C.6 of this attachment is the same as the level of FSTD
authorized for the same tasks during the proficiency test, check, or
review as outlined in Table 3C in this appendix.

E. Administering Evaluations. (see Sec. Sec.  121.1221; 121.1253;
121.1255; 121.1257; 121.1271; 121.1281; 121.1341; 121.1343; 121.1361;
121.1363; 121.1365; 121.1367; 121.1377; 121.1379; 121.1381; 121.1383;
121.1385; and 121.1391)

    The following requirements apply to the evaluation activity
indicated. Refer to Table 3D of this attachment for who may administer
each type of evaluation.
    1. Line Checks. A line check must be completed in accordance with
Sec.  121.1233.
    2. Proficiency Tests.
    (a) Proficiency tests must be administered for first time
qualification in a duty position. They also must be administered at the
end of the first 9-month recurrent training period following the
proficiency test required by Sec.  121.1365(b)(1), and for phase II and
III requalification. Employees of the certificate holder who are used
or will be used in the certificate holder's operations and who have
completed all of the required training may use the proficiency test
obtain a certificate or rating.
    (b) When conducting a proficiency test, the evaluator (FAA, APD, or
check pilot), must evaluate the success of each task as it is
performed. If the proficiency test is a second attempt, and the first
attempt was within the previous 60 days, the only tasks the evaluator
is required to assess are those that were failed or were not assessed
on the first attempt. However, during this retest, and at the
discretion of the evaluator, any task may be reevaluated, including
those previously judged satisfactory.
    (c) During a proficiency test, a task is judged as either
satisfactory or unsatisfactory. However, in limited circumstances, the
evaluator may judge a task to be incomplete or may not be certain about
the outcome of the task. In these limited circumstances, the evaluator
may require the applicant to repeat that task, or portions of that
task; however, this provision does not authorize instruction or
practice. The remaining tasks of the proficiency test must be completed
before repeating the questionable task. If the second attempt to
perform a questionable task is not clearly satisfactory, the evaluator
must consider it unsatisfactory.
    (d) Unsatisfactory performance is demonstrated by consistently
exceeding the parameters set out for the specific task, consistently
exceeding the parameters for aircraft handling standards, or failing to
take prompt, corrective action when those parameters are exceeded. If
the pilot fails a task, the evaluator must decide if the entire test
must be repeated or if the test can continue. If the entire proficiency
test must be repeated, the evaluation must be terminated. If a single
task has been judged unsatisfactory, and both the pilot and the
evaluator agree, the test may continue, but only the tasks that have
not been evaluated may be attempted. If

the pilot fails a second task, the evaluator must terminate the test.
    (e) If the proficiency test must be terminated for unsatisfactory
performance, the FAA notification (and notice of disapproval, if
appropriate) must list the tasks or areas of operation that have not
been evaluated and which tasks or areas of operation that have been
found unsatisfactory. These tasks and areas of operation must be
evaluated, or re-evaluated, on any subsequent proficiency test.
    (f) If a proficiency test is discontinued for reasons other than
unsatisfactory performance (e.g., equipment failure, weather,
sickness), the evaluator must complete one of the following:
    (1) If the test is part of an application for an FAA-issued
certificate or rating, the evaluator must appropriately annotate FAA
Form 8710-1, ``Airman Certificate and/or Rating Application.'' The
evaluator must return FAA Form 8710-1 and, if applicable, AC Form 8080-
2, Airman Written Test Report to the pilot. The evaluator must also
issue a Letter of Discontinuance to the pilot. The Letter of
Discontinuance must identify the portions of the test that were
successfully completed. The pilot must present the Letter of
Discontinuance to the evaluator when the test is resumed. The Letter of
Discontinuance must become part of the certification file.
    (2) If the test is not part of an application for an FAA-issued
certificate or rating, the evaluator must properly annotate the pilot's
training record to indicate the tasks and areas of operation that were
satisfactorily completed and the tasks and areas of operation that were
not evaluated.
    (g) If the proficiency test is conducted as part of an application
for an FAA-issued certificate or rating the pilot must have completed
training for and demonstrated satisfactory performance on the rejected
takeoff task as the pilot flying from either the left-hand or right-
hand pilot's seat and satisfactorily completed the training for and
demonstrated satisfactory performance on the remaining required tasks
and environments listed in this QPS for a proficiency test.
    (h) If the proficiency test is conducted as part of an application
for an FAA-issued certificate or rating, and the pilot has not
completed training for and demonstrated satisfactory performance on the
circle to land task as the pilot flying from either the left-hand or
right-hand pilot's seat, but has satisfactorily completed the training
for and demonstrated satisfactory performance on the remaining required
tasks and environments listed in this QPS for a proficiency test, the
evaluator must annotate any certificate or rating issued with one of
the following limitations:
    (1) If the airline transport pilot certificate is issued coincident
with a type rating, the certificate must be annotated, ``ATP CIRC.
APCH. VMC ONLY, (insert aircraft type) CIRC. APCH-VMC ONLY.''
    (2) If the airplane type rating is added to an airline transport
pilot certificate, the certificate must be annotated, ``(insert
aircraft type) CIRC. APCH-VMC ONLY.''
    (i) The evaluator must submit FAA Form 8081.5C, ``Airman
Performance Report, Airline Transport Pilot and Aircraft Type Rating
for Airplane,'' to the FAA for all tests administered under subpart BB
of part 121.
    3. Proficiency Checks and Reviews.
    (a) Proficiency checks and reviews must include job performance
evaluation of the tasks identified in Table 3B and an equipment
knowledge assessment outlined in section B of Attachment 2 of this
appendix. The equipment knowledge assessment may be replaced by the
academic knowledge test as outlined in Attachment 2 of this appendix if
the pilot completes the proficiency test within 60 days of the
knowledge test. If the pilot does not complete the academic knowledge
test in these areas within 60 days of the proficiency test, the pilot
must complete a test of these knowledge areas in conjunction with the
proficiency check or review. This test may be completed with oral,
written, or computer based methodology. A passing score of 80% is
required in each of the three areas of:
    (1) Aircraft systems;
    (2) Handbooks, manuals, MEL, CDL, and operations specifications;
and
    (3) Aircraft performance and limitations.
    (b) Evaluators who conduct proficiency checks and reviews and
instructors who conduct proficiency reviews may provide limited
training to a pilot. The limits are:
    (1) No more than two tasks may be trained, and no more than a total
of three attempts (including the first unsatisfactory, a rehearsal, and
a final assessment) in each of the two tasks is allowed.
    (2) The pilot has not satisfactorily completed the check or review
if the pilot has three or more unsatisfactory tasks, or fails to
demonstrate satisfactory performance in three attempts at any one task.
    (3) The check or review must be completed within the approved
scheduled time period.
    4. Other Assessments.
    (a) After qualification, the pilot's performance in all job
performance training activities (including LOFT) must be assessed for a
satisfactory level of task proficiency based upon this QPS.
    (b) During a scheduled FSTD course of instruction, if a task is
performed unsatisfactorily the pilot may retrain on the unsatisfactory
task; however, all scheduled tasks, including any retraining, must be
completed within the approved scheduled time period.
    (c) Unsatisfactory task performance during LOFT may not be
retrained and reevaluated during that scheduled time period.
    5. Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory Performance.
    (a) No evaluator or instructor may assess the pilot's performance
as satisfactory unless that pilot:
    (1) Performs the tasks in accordance with the standards and
tolerances established in the QPS.
    (2) Demonstrates mastery of the aircraft or simulated aircraft with
the successful outcome of each task never in doubt.
    (3) Demonstrates performance such that no corrective or instructive
action is required by another pilot to maintain safe flight.
    (4) Demonstrates CRM competencies in accordance with duties
outlined in the FCOM requiring crew interactions, including in a crew
briefing before each takeoff and before each approach.
    (5) Demonstrates sound judgment.
    (b) The evaluator or instructor must assess a pilot's performance
as unsatisfactory if the pilot consistently exceeds tolerances
established in this QPS or fails to take prompt corrective action when
tolerances are exceeded.
    6. Recording, Reporting and Correcting Unsatisfactory Performance.
The certificate holder must report a failure of a test, check, or
review to the FAA in accordance with Sec.  121.1331(f)(1). The pilot
must be retrained and reevaluated to a satisfactory level before the
pilot may begin or be returned to line operations.

BEGIN INFORMATION

    (d) The purpose of these maneuvers is to provide familiarity with
the handling behavior of the aircraft, including operations outside the
normal flight envelope. The intent is to teach the pilot to recognize
the deviation from normal flight, and to practice the return of the
aircraft to a safe state. In this context a safe state is considered an
aircraft attitude (pitch, bank, yaw), airspeed, trim, and thrust
setting appropriate for the aircraft configuration, altitude, and
geographic location, and at which the pilot is able to maintain control
of the aircraft. The pilot should not be expected to execute the
procedures to enter a maneuver. If the instructor requires the
assistance of the pilot to maneuver or configure the aircraft, to fly a
particular airspeed, or to set a particular power or trim setting, the
instructor should provide progressive instructions to the student to
achieve the desired ``set up'' position for the task. Additionally,
recoveries from such situations should not be taught or practiced as
regimented procedures. Returning the aircraft to a safe state requires
that the pilot continue to control the aircraft away from attitudes and
airspeeds that are outside of the normal flight envelope without
exceeding critical performance parameters (e.g., engine temperature or
RPM limits and ``g'' loading) until that safe state is reached. The
only meaningful criterion for satisfactory demonstration of these tasks
is the return of the aircraft to a safe state without exacerbating the
condition.

BEGIN INFORMATION

    (d) It is preferable to conduct slow flight training tasks in
section 6.6 prior to training recovery from approaches to stall (stall
avoidance) in section 6.1.2 through 6.1.4. The clean configuration
scenario in section 6.1.1 should be used to practice the cruise
configuration or holding pattern stall, typically at intermediate and
higher altitudes, where there is usually more altitude available to use
for recovery. The configuration scenarios in sections 6.1.2 through
6.1.4 should be used to practice the low energy and high drag
configurations, typically at very low altitudes, where there is very
little altitude available to use for recovery. One or more of these
should be practiced at an altitude between 300 and 500 feet AGL.
