What must you have to act as PIC under IFR in weather conditions less than
VFR? - correct answers FAR 61.3 (e)
appropriate category, class, type (if required) and instrument ratings on their
certificate
When can you log instrument time? - correct answers FAR 61.51 (g)
A person may log instrument time only for that flight time when the person
operates the aircraft solely by reference to instruments under actual or
simulated instrument flight conditions
What must be written in the logbook to use an approach for recency of
experience? - correct answers Location and type of each approach and the
name of a safety pilot if required
Where can a pilot acquire instrument time? - correct answers Airplane, FTD,
ATD
(for flight simulator, instructor must be present and sign off)
When can an instructor log instrument time when instructing? - correct
answers In actual IFR conditions
When can an instructor log an instrument approach? - correct answers "When
conducted in an aircraft maneuvering in IMC, and the aircraft transitions from
,IMC to visual flight conditions on the final approach segment of the IAP prior
to or upon reaching MDA or DA/DH"
(IMC past the FAF)
What is the required recent flight experience for instrument experience? -
correct answers FAR 61.57 (c)
6 HITs
6 instrument approaches with holding procedures and intercepting and
tracking through the use of navigational electronic systems in actual weather
conditions or under simulated conditions
When is an IPC required to regain currency? - correct answers FAR 61.57 (d)
— if a pilot fails to meet the instrument
experience requirements of 61.57(c) for more than six calendar months, they
may only
reestablish their currency through an IPC.
