Part I/Study Unit 5 – Your FAA Practical (Flight) Test Pages 55-58, Subunit 5.5: For ease of readability, the deleted Form 8710-1 has not been reproduced below. 5.5 PRACTICAL TEST APPLICATION FORM AND IACRA A. Prior to your practical test, your instructor will assist may have you in completing complete a paper version of an FAA Form 8710-1 (which appears on pages 57 and 58) and will sign the top of the back side of the form before filling out the 8710-1 on IACRA. 1. An explanation on how to complete the form is attached to the original, and we have reproduced it on the following page. a. The form is not largely self-explanatory. b. The FAA requires dates to be presented as three groups of digits separated by hyphens. Years should be shown with four digits. For example, January 15, 2010, should only be expressed as 01-15-2010 the FAA wants dates shown as 02-14-15, not 2/14/15. 2. Do not go to your practical test without FAA Form 8710-1 properly filled out completing the IACRA application process; remind your CFI about it as you schedule your practical test. B. If you are enrolled in a Part 141 flight school, the IACRA Air Agency Recommendation block of information on the back side may be completed by the chief instructor of your Part 141 flight school. (S)he, rather than a designated examiner or an FAA inspector, will administer the flight practical test if flight test examining authority has been granted to your flight school. C. Your examiner or Part 141 flight school chief instructor will forward this and other required forms (listed on the bottom of the back side) to the nearest FSDO for review and approval After review and approval, your permanent private pilot certificate will be issued and mailed to you. 1. Then they will be sent to Oklahoma City. However, you will be issued a temporary certificate when you successfully complete the practical test (see Subunit 5.10, “Your Temporary Pilot Certificate,” on page 61). 2. From there, your new pilot certificate will be issued and mailed to you. a. Adding an instrument rating does not require a new certificate; however, the certificate (private or commercial) must be reissued with the instrument rating reflected.

Integrated Airman Certification and/or Rating Application (IACRA) 1. Purpose of IACRA a. IACRA is an Internet database application that allows its users to electronically input information normally submitted in an 8710-1 application. b. Using IACRA to apply for a certificate or rating from the FAA replaces the need to use Form 8710-1. c. IACRA is freely available from the FAA, and all pilots and instructors are strongly encouraged to use it. d. Benefits of IACRA 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Less paper to keep up with Less work for the FAA inspector/DPE after a checkride Ease of data entry/correction All forms transmitted electronically – no mailing Faster processing time from the FAA e. Access IACRA at http://iacra.faa.gov. 2. Getting Started with IACRA a. Since its launch in 2003, the FAA has done a lot to update, simplify, and educate pilots on the IACRA system. A host of informational and training resources is available to potential and current system users. 1) This section assumes you are a new user who has no experience using the IACRA system. b. Step 1: Learn how the IACRA system works. 1) IACRA has defined roles that users occupy to accomplish various tasks. A full list of roles can be obtained here. The most common roles you will work with are the a) b) c) d) Applicant (Student) Recommending Instructor (RI) Designated Examiner (DPE) Aviation Safety Inspector (ASI) 2) When applying for a pilot certificate or rating under Part 61, IACRA is a five-part process, as defined below. a) You register with IACRA and are issued an FAA Tracking Number (FTN). i) Keep the FTN secure but accessible since you will retain that same number forever. ii) If you forget and/or misplace your FTN, the IACRA Help Desk can retrieve it after you verify your identity with Help Desk personnel. ● Contact the IACRA Help Desk via ■ Phone: 1-877-287-6731 ■ Email: [email protected] Copyright © 2016 Gleim Publications, Inc.

Page 3 of 13 b) Log in to the IACRA system and complete the equivalent of an 8710-1 form. i) You will fill out information in 6 tabs, found at the top of the application screen. ii) To speed up the application process, you should have your existing pilot certificate and total flight times before attempting to complete the application. iii) The sixth tab, “Summary,” includes an error-checking utility that examines the application for errors that must be corrected before submitting the application. c) After you have submitted your application, your instructor will sign in to verify your information. (S)he will need your FTN to do this. Once your CFI is finished reviewing your application, (s)he will digitally sign it. d) On the day of the practical test, the DPE/ASI verifies your identification and has you digitally sign the application in his or her presence. e) Upon successful completion of the practical test, the DPE/ASI inputs the necessary information into IACRA, digitally signs the application, and prints a temporary pilot certificate. c. Step 2: Obtain IACRA system documentation for present and future use. 1) The general IACRA training resource page can be found at http://iacratraining.faa.gov/. 2) Read the article “IACRA” (FAA Aviation News, September/October 2007 at www.faa.gov/news/safety_briefing/2007/media/septoct2007.pdf) to learn more about the purpose and function of the IACRA system – both public and government aspects. 3) Download the complete IACRA Instruction Manual (http://iacra.faa.gov/iacra_manuals/IACRA_Instruction_Manual_8.pdf) for later reference when using the system yourself and when assisting your students to complete applications. 4) System Frequently Asked Questions (http://iacra.faa.gov/IACRA/faq.aspx) and answers can be useful in preventing you from having to contact the Help Desk should questions/issues arise.

Page 4 of 13 Part II: Flight Maneuvers and FAA Practical Test Standards: Discussed and Explained Page 96: Each task has an FAA reference list that identifies the publication(s) that describe(s) the task. Our discussion is based on the current issue of these references. Make sure you use the most current published version of each of these references. The following FAA references are used in the Instrument Rating PTS: 14 CFR Part 61 14 CFR Part 91 FAA-H-8083-2 FAA-H-8083-3 FAA-H-8083-15 FAA-H-8083-21 FAA-H-8083-25 FAA-H-8261-1 Certification: Pilots and Flight Instructors General Operating and Flight Rules Risk Management Handbook Airplane Flying Handbook Instrument Flying Handbook Rotorcraft Flying Handbook Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge Instrument Procedures Handbook [...] FARs ARE REFERRED TO AS CFRs NOTE: The FAA abbreviates refers to the Federal Aviation Regulations as “14 CFR” rather than “FARs.” The Office of Management and Budget uses FAR as an acronym for Federal Acquisition Regulations. CFR stands for Code of Federal Regulations, and the Federal Aviation Regulations are in Title 14. For example, FAR Part 1 and FAR 61.109 are now referred to as 14 CFR Part 1 and 14 CFR Sec. 61.109, respectively. Due to CFIs’ and pilots’ widespread use of the acronym FAR, we continue to use FAR rather than CFR and 14 CFR interchangeably to familiarize you with both.

Page 6 of 13 Page 411, Use of the Practical Test Standards Book: All of the procedures and maneuvers in the instrument rating practical test standards have been included in the flight instructor practical test standards; however, to permit completion of the practical test for initial certification within a reasonable time-frame, the examiner shall select one or more TASKS in each AREA OF OPERATION. In certain AREAS OF OPERATION, there are required TASKS which that the examiner must select. These required TASKS are identified by a NOTE immediately following each AREA OF OPERATION title. In preparation for each practical test, the examiner shall develop a written “plan of action.” The examiner shall vary each “plan of action” to ensure that all TASKS in the appropriate practical test standard are evaluated during a given number of practical tests. Except for required TASKS, the examiner should avoid using the same optional TASKS in order to avoid becoming stereotyped. The “plan of action” for a practical test for initial certification shall include one or more TASKS in each AREA OF OPERATION and shall always include the required TASKS. The “plan of action” for a practical test for the addition of an aircraft category and/or class rating to a flight instructor certificate shall include the required AREAS OF OPERATION as indicated in the Additional Rating Table located on page 414. The required TASKS appropriate to the additional rating(s) sought shall be included. The plan of action includes a scenario. The examiner must develop a scenario that allows the evaluation of most of the AREAS OF OPERATIONS and TASKS required in the practical tests with minimum disruptions. During the mission, the examiner interjects problems and emergencies that the applicant must handle. It should be structured so that most of the AREAS OF OPERATIONS and TASKS are accomplished within the mission. The examiner must maintain the flexibility to change the plan due to unexpected situations as they arise and still result in an efficient and valid test. Some tasks (e.g., unusual attitudes) are not normally done during routine flight operations or may not fit into the scenario. These maneuvers still must be demonstrated. It is preferable that these maneuvers be demonstrated after the scenario is completed. But, the practical test scenario can be suspended to do maneuvers, and resumed if the situation, due to time and efficiency of the practical test, dictates so. Any TASK selected for evaluation during the practical test shall be evaluated in its entirety. Applicant shall be expected to perform TASK H in AREA OF OPERATION VI, Recovery from Unusual Attitudes and TASK A in AREA OF OPERATION VIII, Non-precision Instrument Approach using a view-limiting device. The flight instructor applicant shall be prepared in all knowledge and skill areas and demonstrate the ability to instruct effectively in all TASKS included in the AREAS OF OPERATION of this practical test standard. Throughout the flight portion of the practical test, the examiner shall evaluate the applicant’s ability to demonstrate and simultaneously explain the selected procedures and maneuvers, and to give flight instruction to students at various stages of flight training and levels of experience. The term “instructional knowledge” means that the flight instructor applicant’s discussions, explanations, and descriptions should follow the recommended teaching procedures and techniques explained in FAA-H-8083-9, Aviation Instructor’s Handbook. This includes the development of scenario-based lessons, the ability to evaluate single pilot resource management (SRM) skills, and the ability to use learner-centered grading. Pages 412-413, Aircraft and Equipment Required for the Practical Test through Letter of Discontinuance. Note: This section was previously updated in an April 2014 update. The flight instructor–instrument applicant is required by 14 CFR part 61, section 61.45, to provide an airworthy, certificated aircraft for use during the practical test. Its operating limitations must not prohibit the TASKS required on the practical test. This section further requires that the aircraft must: 1. Have fully functioning dual controls, and; 2. Be capable of performing all AREAS OF OPERATION appropriate for the instructor rating sought and have no operating limitations, which prohibit its use in any of the AREAS OF OPERATION, required for the practical test. Flight instruments are those required for controlling the aircraft without outside references. The required radio equipment is that which is necessary for communications with air traffic control (ATC) and for the performance of two of the following nonprecision approaches: VOR, NDB, GPS, LOC, LDA, SDF, or RNAV and one precision approach: ILS, GLS, or MLS very high frequency omnidirectional range (VOR), nondirectional beacon (NDB), global positioning system (GPS) without vertical guidance, localizer (LOC), localizer-type directional aid (LDA), simplified directional facility (SDF), or area navigation (RNAV) and one precision approach: instrument landing system (ILS), GNSS landing system (GLS), localizer performance with vertical guidance (LPV) or microwave landing system (MLS). GPS equipment must be instrument certified and contain the current database. NOTEote: APV approaches may be substituted only for nonprecision approaches. An APV approach shall not be used in lieu of the required precision approach An LPV approach is technically a nonprecision approach, however, due to the precision of its glidepath and localizer-like lateral navigation characteristics, an LPV can be used to demonstrate precision approach proficiency (AOA VIII TASK B). Also, although LPV and LNAV/VNAV approaches are nonprecision approaches, they cannot be used to demonstrate nonprecision approach proficiency (AOA VIII TASK A) due to the presence of a glidepath.

Page 7 of 13 Modern technology has introduced into aviation a new method of displaying flight instruments, such as Electronic Flight Instrument Systems, Integrated Flight Deck displays, and others. For the purpose of the practical test standards, any flight instrument display that utilizes liquid crystal display (LCD) or picture-tube-like displays will be referred to as “Electronic Flight Instrument Display.” Aircraft equipped with this technology may or may not have separate backup flight instruments installed. The abnormal or emergency procedure for loss of the electronic flight instrument display appropriate to the aircraft will be evaluated in the Loss of Primary Instruments TASK. The loss of the primary electronic flight instrument display must be tailored to failures that would normally be encountered in the aircraft. If the aircraft is capable, total failure of the electronic flight instrument display, or a supporting component, with access only to the standby flight instruments or backup display shall be evaluated. [...] The applicant is expected to utilize an autopilot and/or flight management system (FMS), if properly installed, during the flight instructor–instrument practical test to assist in the management of the aircraft. The examiner is expected to test the applicant’s knowledge of the systems that are installed and operative during the oral and flight portions of the practical test. The applicant will be required to demonstrate the use of the autopilot and/or FMS during one of the nonprecision approaches. The applicant is expected to demonstrate satisfactory automation management skills. If the practical test is conducted in an the aircraft, and the aircraft has an operable and properly installed GPS, the examiner will require and the applicant must demonstrate GPS approach proficiency. If the applicant has contracted for training in an approved course that includes GPS training in the system that is installed in the airplane/simulator/FTD and the airplane/simulator/FTD used for the checking/testing has the same system properly installed and operable, the applicant must demonstrate GPS approach proficiency. NOTE: For GPS, add RNP when applicable. NOTE: If any avionics/navigation unit, including GPS, in the aircraft used for the practical test is placarded inoperative, the examiner will review the maintenance log to verify that the discrepancy has been properly documented. Use of FAA-Approved Flight Simulation Training Device (FSTD) An airman applicant for instrument rating certification is authorized to use a full flight simulator (FFS) qualified by the National Simulator Program as levels A-D and/or a flight training device (FTD) qualified by the National Simulator Program as levels 4-7 to complete certain flight TASK requirements listed in this practical test standard. In order to do so, such devices must be used pursuant to and in accordance with a curriculum approved for use at a 14 CFR part 141 pilot school or 14 CFR part 142 training center. Practical tests or portions thereof, when accomplished in an FSTD, may only be conducted by FAA aviation safety inspectors, designees authorized to conduct such tests in FSTDs for part 141 pilot school graduates, or appropriately authorized part 142 Training Center Evaluators (TCE). When flight TASKS are accomplished in an aircraft, certain TASK elements may be accomplished through “simulated” actions in the interest of safety and practicality, but when accomplished in a flight simulator or flight training device, these same actions would not be “simulated.” For example, when in an aircraft, a simulated engine fire may be addressed by retarding the throttle to idle, simulating the shutdown of the engine, simulating the discharge of the fire suppression agent, if applicable, simulating the disconnection of associated electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatics systems. However, when the same emergency condition is addressed in a FSTD, all TASK elements must be accomplished as would be expected under actual circumstances. Similarly, safety of flight precautions taken in the aircraft for the accomplishment of a specific maneuver or procedure (such as limiting altitude in an approach to stall or setting maximum airspeed for an engine failure expected to result in a rejected takeoff) need not be taken when a FSTD is used. It is important to understand that, whether accomplished in an aircraft or FSTD, all TASKS and elements for each maneuver or procedure shall have the same performance standards applied equally for determination of overall satisfactory performance. The applicant must demonstrate all of the instrument approach procedures required by 14 CFR part 61. At least one instrument approach procedure must be demonstrated in an airplane, helicopter, or powered lift as appropriate. One precision and one nonprecision approach not selected for actual flight demonstration may be performed in FSTDs that meet the requirements of Appendix 1 of this practical test standard. Flight Instructor Responsibility [...] Throughout the applicant’s training, the flight instructor is responsible for emphasizing the performance of, and the ability to teach, effective visual scanning, runway incursion avoidance, collision avoidance procedures, and Land and Hold Short Operations (LAHSO). The flight instructor applicant should develop and use scenario based teaching methods particularly on special emphasis areas. These areas are covered in AC 90-48, Pilot’s Role in Collision Avoidance; FAA-H8083-3, Airplane Flying Handbook; FAA-H-8083-25, Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge; and the current Aeronautical Information Manual.

Page 8 of 13 Examiner Responsibility The examiner conducting the practical test is responsible for determining that the applicant meets acceptable standards of teaching ability, knowledge, and skill in the selected TASKS. The examiner makes this determination by accomplishing an Objective that is appropriate to each selected TASK, and includes an evaluation of the applicant’s: 1. Ability to apply the fundamentals of instructing; 2. Knowledge of, and ability to teach, the subject matter, procedures, and maneuvers covered in the TASKS; 3. Ability to perform the procedures and maneuvers included in the standards to the INSTRUMENT PILOT skill level while giving effective flight instruction; and 4. Ability to analyze and correct common errors related to the procedures and maneuvers covered in the TASKS.; 5. Ability to develop scenario-based instruction that meets lesson objectives; 6. Ability to teach and evaluate SRM and CRM, to include multipilot aircraft; and 7. Ability to use learner-centered grading and debriefing techniques appropriately. [...] Satisfactory Performance The practical test is passed if, in the judgment of the examiner, the applicant demonstrates satisfactory performance with regard to: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Knowledge of the fundamentals of instructing; Knowledge of the technical subject areas; Knowledge of the flight instructor’s responsibilities concerning the pilot certification process; Knowledge of the flight instructor’s responsibilities concerning logbook entries and pilot certificate endorsements; Ability to demonstrate the procedures and maneuvers selected by the examiner to the instrument instructor pilot skill level while giving effective instruction; 6. Competence in teaching the procedures and maneuvers selected by the examiner; 7. Competence in describing, recognizing, analyzing, and correcting common errors simulated by the examiner; and 8. Knowledge of the development and effective use of a course of training, a syllabus, and a lesson plan, including scenario-based training and collaborative assessment (learner centered grading). Unsatisfactory Performance If, in the judgment of the examiner, the applicant does not meet the standards of performance of any TASK performed, the associated AREA OF OPERATION is failed and therefore, the practical test is failed. The examiner or applicant may discontinue the test at any time when the failure of an AREA OF OPERATION makes the applicant ineligible for the certificate or rating sought. The test may be continued ONLY with the consent of the applicant. If the test is discontinued, the applicant is entitled to credit for only those AREAS OF OPERATION and TASKS satisfactorily performed; however, during the retest and at the discretion of the examiner, any TASK may be re-evaluated, including those previously passed. Specific reasons for disqualification are: 1. Failure to perform a procedure or maneuver to the instrument instructor pilot skill level while giving effective flight instruction; 2. Failure to provide an effective instructional explanation while demonstrating a procedure or maneuver (explanation during the demonstration must be clear, concise, technically accurate, and complete with no prompting from the examiner); 3. Any action or lack of action by the applicant which requires corrective intervention by the examiner to maintain safe flight; and 4. Failure to use proper and effective visual scanning techniques to clear the area before and while performing maneuvers. 5. Failure to incorporate SRM principles throughout the practical test. When a notice of disapproval is issued, the examiner shall record the applicant’s unsatisfactory performance in terms of AREAS OF OPERATION and TASKS. If the applicant fails the practical test because of a special emphasis area, the Notice of Disapproval shall indicate the associated TASK. An example would be; AREA OF OPERATION VIII, CIRCLING APPROACH (AIRPLANE), failure to use proper runway incursion avoidance procedures. Letter of Discontinuance When a practical test is discontinued for reasons other than unsatisfactory performance (i.e.e.g., equipment failure, weather, or illness) FAA Form 8700-1, Airman Certificate and/or Rating Application, and, if applicable, the Airman Knowledge Test Report, shall be returned to the applicant. The examiner at that time shall prepare, sign, and issue a Letter of Discontinuance to the applicant. The Letter of Discontinuance should identify the AREAS OF OPERATION and their associated TASKs of the practical test that were successfully completed. The applicant shall be advised that the Letter of Discontinuance shall be presented to the examiner when the practical test is resumed, and made part of the certification file.

Page 9 of 13 Page 414, Emphasis on Attitude Instrument Flying and Partial Panel Skills. Note: This section was previously updated in an April 2014 update. FAA-S-8081-4, Instrument Rating Practical Test Standards, and FAA-S-8081-9, Flight Instructor–Instrument Practical Test Standards, place increased emphasis on basic attitude instrument flying and require the demonstration of partial panel, a nonprecision instrument approach procedures without the use of the primary flight instruments or electronic flight instrument display. This practical test book, FAA-S-8081-9, emphasizes these this areas from an instructional standpoint. AREA OF OPERATION VI requires the applicant to demonstrate the ability to teach basic instrument flight TASKS under both full panel and partial panel conditions reference to backup primary flight instruments/electronic flight instrument displays. These TASKS maneuvers are described in detail in FAA-H-8083-15, Instrument Flying Handbook. Examiners should determine that the applicant demonstrates and fully understands either the PRIMARY and SUPPORTING or the CONTROL and PERFORMANCE CONCEPT method of attitude instrument flying. Both attitude instrument flying methods are described in FAA-H-8083-15, Instrument Flying Handbook. The TASKS require the applicant to exhibit instructional knowledge of attitude instrument flying techniques and procedures and to demonstrate the ability to teach basic instrument maneuvers with both full panel and partial panel or reference to backup primary flight instruments/electronic flight instrument displays.
