reference flight to visual flight during
a final approach under reduced RVR.
(vii) Effects of vertical and hori-
zontal windshear;
(viii) Characteristics and limitations
of the ILS and runway lighting system;
(ix) Characteristics and limitations
of the flight director system auto ap-
proach coupler (including split axis
type if equipped), auto throttle system
(if equipped), and other Category III
equipment;
(x) Assigned duties of the second in
command during Category III oper-
ations, unless the aircraft for which
authorization is sought does not re-
quire a second in command;
(xi) Recognition of the limits of ac-
ceptable aircraft position and flight
path tracking during approach, flare,
and, if applicable, rollout; and
(xii) Recognition of, and reaction to,
airborne or ground system faults or ab-
normalities, particularly after passing
alert height or decision height, as ap-
plicable.
(2)
Flight increment. The following re-
quirements apply to the flight incre-
ment of the practical test—
(i) The flight increment may be con-
ducted in an aircraft of the same cat-
egory and class, and type, as applica-
ble, as the aircraft for which the au-
thorization is sought, or in a flight
simulator that—
(A) Represents an aircraft of the
same category and class, and type, as
applicable, as the aircraft in which the
authorization is sought; and
(B) Is used in accordance with an ap-
proved course conducted by a training
center certificated under part 142 of
this chapter.
(ii) The flight increment must con-
sist of at least two ILS approaches to
100 feet AGL, including one landing and
one missed approach initiated from a
very low altitude that may result in a
touchdown during the go-around ma-
neuver;
(iii) All approaches performed during
the flight increment must be made
with the approved automatic landing
system or an equivalent landing sys-
tem approved by the Administrator;
(iv) If a multiengine aircraft with the
performance capability to execute a
missed approach with one engine inop-
erative is used for the practical test,
the flight increment must include the
performance of one missed approach
with the most critical engine, if appli-
cable, set at idle or zero thrust before
reaching the middle or outer marker;
(v) If a multiengine flight simulator
or multiengine flight training device is
used, a missed approach must be exe-
cuted with an engine, which shall be
the most critical engine, if applicable,
failed;
(vi) For an authorization for an air-
craft that requires a type rating, the
practical test must be performed in co-
ordination with a second in command
who holds a type rating in the aircraft
in which the authorization is sought;
(vii) Oral questioning may be con-
ducted at any time during the practical
test;
(viii) Subject to the limitations of
this paragraph, for Category IIIb oper-
ations predicated on the use of a fail-
passive rollout control system, at least
one manual rollout using visual ref-
erence or a combination of visual and
instrument references must be exe-
cuted. The maneuver required by this
paragraph shall be initiated by a fail-
passive disconnect of the rollout con-
trol system—
(A) After main gear touchdown;
(B) Prior to nose gear touchdown;
(C) In conditions representative of
the most adverse lateral touchdown
displacement allowing a safe landing
on the runway; and
(D) In weather conditions anticipated
in Category IIIb operations.

light vehicle towing: Experience
and training requirements.
(a) No person may act as pilot in
command for towing a glider or
unpowered ultralight vehicle unless
that person—
(1) Holds a private, commercial or
airline transport pilot certificate with
a category rating for powered aircraft;
(2) Has logged at least 100 hours of
pilot-in-command time in the aircraft
category, class and type, if required,
that the pilot is using to tow a glider
or unpowered ultralight vehicle;
(3) Has a logbook endorsement from
an authorized instructor who certifies
