"mhorowit" wrote in message ups.com... Urban myth. There is no FAR which sez anything like 'a competent person at the controls'. There are other sources, and itis a good idea, but no 'rule'. Believe me, when I was preparing for my visit with the FSDO I did the research. IMHO the absolutely best thing to do (which I did not) is to TIE IT DOWN!!!! which I will never forget again, believe me . FYI, the Examiner and I believe the cause of the memory lapse was that coming off an emotional experience (a very successful XC, about which I was very excited), I let my attention wander. - Mike Uh, Michael, it is both written and spoken within the radius of our FSDO here and others. I didn't say it was an FAR. Of course the general rule about keeping an aircraft under control is more general, but hand-propping outside of FSDO guidelines is considered the basis for violation, especially if a catastrophe occurs. That said, I am glad to know no such rule exists in the jurisdiction or vicinity of your airport. |
