Minimum Qualifications ?

[Sleeve Wing]

Can somebody please clarify what are the minimum qualifications needed to continue instructing at the end of one's career with regard to medical class and level of professional licence ? I'm probably getting senile or is it just the idiosyncracies of JAR-FCL ??

PPL and Class 2 if unremunerated

CPL and Class 1 if remunerated

or CPL with Restricted Class 1

[NIMBUS]

Any idea what an FAA 700hr S/E CPL/IR would have to do to become a part-time instructor?
Thinking of moving to UK at some time in 2001 and I'd like to continue flying, but probably can't afford to pay for it all myself!

NIMBUS - Assuming that you wished to instruct for remuneration:

1. Obtain a JAA professional licence.
2. Complete an approved course of training at a school approved for the JAA Flight Instructor (Restricted) (FI(R)) course
3. Pass the Flight and Ground tets with a Flight Examiner Instructor (FIE).

This would qualify you to instruct, under the supervision of a nominated FI, for the PPL and CPL (VFR elements). Further courses of training would be required to qualify as an Instrument Rating Instructor (IRI) and ME Class Rating Instructor (CRI)

Many thanks, Noggin. Explicit!
