slipstreamsurfrThe part 61 rewrite! We've been waiting ages!! YEARS for it!!!
I just found it on the faa site tonight!
http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2009/pdf/E9-19353.pdf
so looking on page 42533 of the notes on the document on the FAA site.. they say..
"Therefore, this final rule provides for commercial pilot certification for single engine airplane, helicopter, gyroplane, powered-lift, and airship ratings to be performed either solo or while performing the duties of PIC with an authorized instructor aboard."
Now, based on an original reading of the ME Comm reading before with a couple of CFI's, even though my class III medical restricts me from flying at night due to my color vision problem, this would allow me to act perform duties of PIC with my instructor on board and be able to fulfill the requirements to sit for the test.
If so, then there is nothing holding me back from the CFI!!
I've got a couple of close cfi friends/rule mongers right now reading it over to see if it's true.
I know I must sound overly excited by this, but if it's true, it opens the commercial and CFI to me!!!
