Pat,
What is involved with the UK annual "revalidation" exercise?
The Biannual Flight Review required of all pilots in the USA, except
those operating under our Part 103 REAL Ultralight rule, consists of a
minimum of two hours of instruction, one of which is ground instruction
and at least one in the air. To add to the confusion, the FAA no longer
calls this a Biannual Flight Review, merely a flight review that must
be completed within the previous 24 months if one is to act as PIC. But
we pilots are a simple lot and mostly resist nonsensical change, so we
still call it the BFR with many assorted (and sordid) meanings of the
acronym.

Hi Thom,
I f you get the re validation done before the old one runs out all you have
to do is produce your log book to show that you have flown 5 hours in the
previous 12 months (13 months in practice). Your log book is stamped and
that is that.
It is is when the period has run out that the problem arises.
In fact the authorities tell me that Mick Moulai, the UK Kolb dealer, is
authorised to re validate . licences. He will be doing the flight testing,
hopefully with me aboard (the test has to be carried out with full load) so
maybe that can be treated as a GFT and he can put the required stamp in my
book. I haven`t talked to him yet. Hope springs eternal..
Regarding immigration. Thanks to everyone who has pointed me in the
direction of the Mexican border rather than Ellis Island. Having heard,
while I was in the States, a couple of tattooed, bare armed and overweight
Harley riders boasting that they were on the way to the Border `to get me a
Mexican` on the grounds that `they come here, rape our women and take our
jobs. A`hm a vet, an` I aint bin treated right an a`hm going down there to
sort it out` I think I will give it a miss.
Cheers
Pat

| Subject: | Permanent Gap Seal for a Mk-III |
Kolb Friends -
I'm thinking of modifying my Mark-III to have a permanent gap seal.
(Presently, my set up is factory stock - gap seal must be removed every
time the wings are folded.)
Because I store my Kolb with wings folded, I go thru the wing-folding
routine every time I fly. Gap seal goes on and off for every flight.
At Monument Valley last month, I saw someone's Mark-III (can't remember
whose - Boyd's, maybe?) with the gap seal built to remain in place even
with the wings folded. The gap seal did not interfere with the
wing-folding procedure. This is what I'd like to have. I realize I'll
have to rebuild the gap seal from scratch ... not a big deal.
Can anyone offer any tips or advice along these lines?
Many thanks (in advance) -
Dennis Kirby

| Subject: | Re: Another hurdle (US BFR) |
Rick,
<<The WSC endorsement is for Weight Shift Control. I flew with two
instructors, one to prepare for the check ride and sign me off for it,
the other to do the check ride. Both were assured by the Lakeland FSDO
that because the endorsement was for a new type and class I could not
operate the aircraft as pilot in command so no BFR. Once the endorsement
was earned I could operate as PIC and could then take the BFR ride. Your
local office may interpret the rules differently, but that's the
reasoning in Florida. >>
Ah yes, forgot about Catch-22. as
61.56(c)(1) Accomplished a flight review given in an aircraft for which
that pilot is rated by an authorized instructor
but the exemption for a new rating says
61.56(d) .. passed a pilot proficiency check *conducted by an
examiner*.. for a pilot certificate, rating, ,, [emphasis added]
but the WSC check is from
61.321(b) Successfully complete a proficiency check from an *authorized
instructor*.. [emphasis added]
so you don't have to be PIC to take the BFR but you must have been able
to be PIC sometime before the BFR. Clearly this is an area where we
should get the EAA to lobby the FAA for a minor rule change. I'll send
them a suggestion to add "an authorized instructor, " to 61.56(d). The
more people who do the same the better. The idea is to encourage people
to get new ratings not punish them financially.
Tom
