Flight Review

Definition

A review required by FAR 61.56 every 24 calendar months to maintain pilot-in-command privileges. Consists of at least 1 hour of ground and 1 hour of flight training with a CFI.

Why It Matters

Flight reviews are often overlooked by rental pilots. A scheduling system that tracks flight review currency can prevent a pilot from booking a solo or rental flight with an expired review.
