limitations, scene interpretation, vis-
ual anomalies, and other visual effects; 

(v) Preflight planning and oper-

ational considerations associated with 
using EFVS during taxi, takeoff, climb,

flight, including the use of EFVS for 
instrument approaches, operating 
below DA/DH or MDA, executing 
missed approaches, landing, rollout, 
and balked landings; 

(vi) Weather associated with low visi-

bility conditions and its effect on 
EFVS performance; 

(vii) Normal, abnormal, emergency, 

and crew coordination procedures when

Flight training. 

(1) Except as pro-

vided under paragraph (h) of this sec-
tion, no person may manipulate the 
controls of an aircraft or act as pilot in

brightness and contrast under day and 
night conditions; 

(ii) Proper piloting techniques associ-

ated with using EFVS during taxi, 
takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, landing, 
and rollout, including missed ap-
proaches and balked landings; 

(iii) Proper piloting techniques for 

the use of EFVS during instrument ap-
proaches, to include operations below 
DA/DH or MDA as applicable to the 
EFVS operations to be conducted, 
under both day and night conditions; 

(iv) Determining enhanced flight vis-

ibility; 

(v) Identifying required visual ref-

erences appropriate to EFVS oper-
ations; 

(vi) Transitioning from EFVS sensor 

imagery to natural vision acquisition 
of required visual references and the 
runway environment; 

(vii) Using EFVS sensor imagery, re-

quired aircraft flight information, and 
flight symbology to touchdown and 
rollout, if the person receiving training 
will conduct EFVS operations under 
§ 91.176(a) of this chapter; and 

(viii) Normal, abnormal, emergency, 

and crew coordination procedures when 
using an EFVS. 

(c) 

Supplementary EFVS training.
