Endorsement needed to take the FOI?
Asked by: Matthew Beyer 40675 views FAA Regulations, Flight Instructor
I am confused on the FOI endorsement for initial CFI. I read in the current FAR 61.183(d)"...an endorsement from an authorized instructor of the FOI listed in ... of this part appropriate to the required knowledge test".
But on the internet (always accurate :)) and in a book I bought on endorsements there are references to "I certify I have given ground instruction required by ... and he/she is prepared to take the FOI knowledge test". Yet when I took both FOI and FIA, I didnt need to show an endorsement. So is the currect and current information to "get an endorsement that I received training on FOI" (which has nothing to do with a pre-req for taking the test", and that what I read in the book and internet is old FAR information?
