Summary of Changes for Practical Test Standards(Latest change dated 3/11/99)

This list contains only a brief explanation of each appropriate change.

The actual wording of the change is incorporated into its latest affected

PTS. As always, when you download the full(free) PTS from this Web

page, or purchase a hard copy, you will automatically receive its changes

in the text of that PTS.

FAA-S-8081-3, No changes to Recreational Pilot (Airplane/Rotorcraft)

FAA-S-8081-4C, Change 1 & 2 to Instrument Rating

AREA OF OPERATION: INSTRUMENT APPROACH PROCEDURES, TASK D,CIRCLING APPROACH (IA, A, AA).

Reason: Correction of circling approach altitude tolerances for minimum descent altitude (MDA).

Change 2: 3/1/99

Reason: To align the PTS with part 61

Added a Rating Task Table matrix and changed appropriate referencesin the introduction.

All references to Standard Instrument Departure (SID or SID’s) have beenchanged to read: instrument departure procedures(DP’S).

Reason: To bring the PTS in line with the Aeronautical Information Manual(AIM).

Removed all references applicable to added ratings(in parenthesis) by each TASK on the Examiner’s Checklist and throughout the PTS.

PRACTICAL TEST STANDARDS FORAIRPLANE

Change 1: 4/28/97Reason: Text in all STEEP TURNS. Tasks have been changed to emphasize steep turn entry speed atmanufacturer’s recommended speed, or one designated by the Examiner, not to exceed VA. Thisprovides an option of a slower entry speed, when operating a lower performance land or seaplane.

• SINGLE-ENGINE LANDAREA OF OPERATION: PERFORMANCE MANEUVERS

TASK A: STEEP TURNS• MULTIENGINE LAND

AREA OF OPERATION: PERFORMANCE MANEUVERSTASK: STEEP TURNS

• SINGLE-ENGINE SEAAREA OF OPERATION: PERFORMANCE MANEUVERS

TASK: STEEP TURNS• MULTIENGINE SEA


Change 2: 8/15/97

Reason: Text changed in Introduction to agree with the new 14 CFR part 61

complex airplane definition.

Notes added to Rating Task Table to clarify required aircraft for added rating practical tests.

Appendixes 1 and 2 are expanded to include additional NOTES and conditions required for pilot

certification in FTDs and simulators. Additional lower levels of FTD are now required for certain

flight tasks.

. Introduction [Aircraft and Equipment Required for the Practical Test]

. Appendix 1 (TASK VS. SIMULATION DEVICE CREDIT) Single-Engine Land (SEL)

Appendix 2 (TASK VS. SIMULATION DEVICE CREDIT) Multiengine Land (MEL)

Change 3: 12/4/97

Reasons: Text in Introduction changed to meet complex airplane requirement.

Text changed in Introduction to line up with the new 14 CFR part 61

Reason:

1. Commercial Pilot-Rotorcraft Practical Test Prerequisites, (page vii). Delete item #2, and renumberthe remaining prerequisites. There is no requirement for possessing and instrument rating when makingapplication for initial Rotorcraft-Helicopter, certification.

2. Commercial Pilot-Rotorcraft-Gyroplane PTS, AREA OF OPERATION VI, GROUNDREFERENCE MANEUVER-Eights Around Pylons, (pages 2-ii, 2-viii, and 2-16). All reference toGround Reference Maneuvers are deleted from Gyroplane PTS. It has been determined that thisAREA OF OPERATION is not appropriate to Gyroplane training and testing.
