section may be accomplished by satis-
factory completion of one of the fol-
lowing: 

(1) A pilot-in-command proficiency 

check conducted by a person author-
ized by the Administrator, consisting 
of the aeronautical knowledge areas, 
areas of operations, and tasks required 
for a type rating, in an aircraft that is 
type certificated for more than one 
pilot flight crewmember or is turbojet- 
powered; 

(2) The practical test required for a 

type rating, in an aircraft that is type 
certificated for more than one required 
pilot flight crewmember or is turbojet- 
powered; 

(3) The initial or periodic practical 

test required for the issuance of a pilot 
examiner or check airman designation, 
in an aircraft that is type certificated 
for more than one required pilot flight 
crewmember or is turbojet-powered; 

(4) A pilot proficiency check adminis-

tered by a U.S. Armed Force that 
qualifies the military pilot for pilot-in- 
command designation with instrument 
privileges, and was performed in a mili-
tary aircraft that the military requires 
to be operated by more than one pilot 
flight crewmember or is turbojet-pow-
ered; 

(5) For a pilot authorized by the Ad-

ministrator to operate an experimental 
turbojet-powered aircraft that pos-
sesses, by original design or through 
modification, more than a single seat, 
the required proficiency check for all 
of the experimental turbojet-powered 
aircraft for which the pilot holds an 
authorization may be accomplished by 
completing any one of the following: 

(i) A single proficiency check, con-

ducted by an examiner authorized by 
the Administrator, in any one of the 
experimental turbojet-powered aircraft 
for which the airman holds an author-
ization to operate if conducted within 
the prior 12 months; 

(ii) A single proficiency check, con-

ducted by an examiner authorized by 
the Administrator, in any experi-
mental turbojet-powered aircraft (

e.g.

, 

if a pilot acquires a new authorization 

to operate an additional experimental 
turbojet-powered aircraft, the check 
for that new authorization will meet 
the intent), if conducted within the 
prior 12 months; 

(iii) Current qualification under an 

Advanced Qualification Program (AQP) 
under subpart Y of part 121 of this 
chapter; 

(iv) Any proficiency check conducted

ered aircraft.

mental turbojet-powered aircraft who 
has not received a proficiency check 
within the prior 12 months in accord-
ance with this section may continue to 
operate such aircraft in accordance 
with the pilot’s authorizations. How-
ever, the pilot is prohibited from car-
riage of any persons in any experi-
mental turbojet-powered aircraft with 
the exception of those individuals au-
thorized by the Administrator to con-
duct training, conduct flight checks, or 
perform pilot certification functions in 
such aircraft, and only during flights 
specifically related to training, flight 
checks, or certification in such air-
craft. 

(f) This section will not apply to a 

pilot authorized by the Administrator 
to serve as pilot in command in experi-
mental turbojet-powered aircraft that 
possesses, by original design, a single 
seat, when operating such single-seat 
aircraft.
