14 CFR Ch. I (1–1–19 Edition) 

§ 63.43 

Convention on International Civil 
Aviation, who meets the requirements 
of this section, may have a flight engi-
neer certificate issued to him for the 
operation of civil aircraft of U.S. reg-
istry. Each flight engineer certificate 
issued under this section specifies the 
number and State of issuance of the 
foreign flight engineer license on which 
it is based. If the holder of the certifi-
cate cannot read, speak, or understand 
the English language, the Adminis-
trator may place any limitation on the 
certificate that he considers necessary 
for safety. 

(b) 

Medical standards and certification. 

An applicant must submit evidence 
that he currently meets the medical 
standards for the foreign flight engi-
neer license on which the application 
for a certificate under this section is 
based. A current medical certificate 
issued under part 67 of this chapter will 
be excepted as evidence that the appli-
cant meets those standards. However, a 
medical certificate issued under part 67 
of this chapter is not evidence that the 
applicant meets those standards out-
side the United States unless the State 
that issued the applicant’s foreign 
flight engineer license also accepts 
that medical certificate as evidence of 
the applicant’s physical fitness for his 
foreign flight engineer license. 

(c) 

Ratings issued. 

Aircraft class rat-

ings listed on the applicant’s foreign 
flight engineer license, in addition to 
any issued to him after testing under 
the provisions of this part, are placed 
on the applicant’s flight engineer cer-
tificate. An applicant without an air-
craft class rating on his foreign flight 
engineer license may be issued a class 
rating if he shows that he currently 
meets the requirements for exercising 
the privileges of his foreign flight engi-
neer license on that class of aircraft. 

(d) 

Privileges and limitations. 

The hold-

er of a flight engineer certificate issued 
under this section may act as a flight 
engineer of a civil aircraft of U.S. reg-
istry subject to the limitations of this 
part and any additional limitations 
placed on his certificate by the Admin-
istrator. He is subject to these limita-
tions while he is acting as a flight engi-
neer of the aircraft within or outside 
the United States. However, he may 
not act as flight engineer or in any 

other capacity as a required flight 
crewmember, of a civil aircraft of U.S. 
registry that is carrying persons or 
property for compensation or hire. 

(e) 

Renewal of certificate and ratings. 

The holder of a certificate issued under 
this section may have that certificate 
and the ratings placed thereon renewed 
if, at the time of application for re-
newal, the foreign flight engineer li-
cense on which that certificate is based 
is in effect. Application for the renewal 
of the certificate and ratings thereon 
must be made before the expiration of 
the certificate.

§ 63.43

Flight engineer courses. 

An applicant for approval of a flight 

engineer course must submit a letter 
to the Administrator requesting ap-
proval, and must also submit three 
copies of each course outline, a descrip-
tion of the facilities and equipment, 
and a list of the instructors and their 
qualifications. An air carrier or com-
mercial operator with an approved 
flight engineer training course under 
part 121 of this chapter may apply for 
approval of a training course under 
this part by letter without submitting 
the additional information required by 
this paragraph. Minimum requirements 
for obtaining approval of a flight engi-
neer course are set forth in appendix C 
of this part.
