Recency – Category, Class, and Type if required
Asked by: awair 1255 views Commercial Pilot, FAA Regulations, Private Pilot
Consider a pilot who gains their (initial airplane) certificate by completing a Checkride on a multi-engine Type. They are granted both the Type Rating and AMEL.
For recency, they complete 3 take-offs and landings in the specific type: are they also current for the generic multi-engine land class?
Under EASA, the type is considered separate from the class, whereas under the FAA (at least for certificate issue) the type is a sub-set.
Many thanks.
