IPC and Flight Review Multiengine and Single Engine Land

Asked by: 10187 views , , , ,
Commercial Pilot, Instrument Rating

Hello all! 

I am an FAA Commercial Multiengine & Single engine Land with Instrument rating in both classes.

I haven't fly for more than a year, so I decided to get back in shape. I want to get current in both multiengine and single engine aircrafts. Since my BFR is due soon, I want to do the Flight Review and the Instrument Proficiency Check all together.

 

My question is:

1. Since I want to do the flight review and the IPC together, can I do them in the same flight? For example: FR and IPC in a C172P.

2. Since I want to get current in both multi and single engine, do I need to repeat the flight review and the IPC in both aircraft classes or one class fits all?

Thanks in advance,

    61.56(c) requires that the fight review be conducted in AN aircraft for which the pilot is rated, not EVERY aircraft for which the pilot is rated.

    If you talk to your flight instructor about what you want to do, you should be able to accomplish the flight review and IPC during the same flight.

    Or, you could do the flight review in the single and the IPC in the multi. This would give you some experience in both classes.

    In contrast to the flight review, an IPC needs to be done for each “category” of aircraft. FAR 61.57(c).

    In the multi/single airplane situation, only one IPC since those are “classes” not categories.
