BFR for ALL rated aircraft......wtf
There is an instructor in our club that's claiming the FAA would
"like" pilots to get BFR's in all aircraft they are rated to fly. It
makes sense to me that if a guy flies a twin turbine, getting a BFR
in a Blanik, and then jumping in a King Air is probably not a good
idea.
What about a pilot who get's a BFR in a C-172, then jumps in their
personal sailplane that they usually put 150 hours in a year?
The rationale I've heard reminds me that once again, society needs to
dumb us all down to the lowest common denominator: the pilot who
indeed thinks sailplanes and Twin Turbines are the same...........
