§ 61.417

Will my flight instructor cer-

tificate with a sport pilot rating list 
aircraft category and class ratings? 

Your flight instructor certificate 

does not list aircraft category and 
class ratings. When you successfully 
pass the practical test for a flight in-
structor certificate with a sport pilot 
rating, regardless of the light-sport air-
craft privileges you seek, the FAA will 
issue you a flight instructor certificate 
with a sport pilot rating without any 
category and class ratings. The FAA 
will provide you with a logbook en-
dorsement for the category and class of 
light-sport aircraft you are authorized 
to provide training in. 

§ 61.419

How do I obtain privileges to 

provide training in an additional 
category or class of light-sport air-
craft? 

If you hold a flight instructor certifi-

cate with a sport pilot rating and seek 
to provide training in an additional 
category or class of light-sport aircraft 
you must— 

(a) Receive a logbook endorsement 

from the authorized instructor who 
trained you on the applicable areas of 
operation specified in § 61.409 certifying 
you have met the aeronautical knowl-
edge and flight proficiency require-
ments for the additional category and 
class flight instructor privilege you 
seek; 

(b) Successfully complete a pro-

ficiency check from an authorized in-
structor other than the instructor who 
trained you on the areas specified in 
§ 61.409 for the additional category and 
class flight instructor privilege you 
seek; 

(c) Complete an application for those 

privileges on a form and in a manner 
acceptable to the FAA and present this 
application to the authorized instruc-
tor who conducted the proficiency 
check specified in paragraph (b) of this 
section; and 

(d) Receive a logbook endorsement 

from the instructor who conducted the 
proficiency check specified in para-
graph (b) of this section certifying you 
are proficient in the areas of operation 
and authorized for the additional cat-
egory and class flight instructor privi-
lege. 

§ 61.421

May I give myself an endorse-

ment? 

No. If you hold a flight instructor 

certificate with a sport pilot rating, 
you may not give yourself an endorse-
ment for any certificate, privilege, rat-
ing, flight review, authorization, prac-
tical test, knowledge test, or pro-
ficiency check required by this part. 

§ 61.423

What are the recordkeeping 

requirements for a flight instructor 
with a sport pilot rating? 

(a) As a flight instructor with a sport 

pilot rating you must: 

(1) Sign the logbook of each person to 

whom you have given flight training or 
ground training.
