(iv) If the Administrator finds a simulator 

or flight engineer training device to accu-
rately reproduce the design, function, and 
control characteristics, as pertaining to the 
duties and responsibilities of a flight engi-
neer on the type of airplane to be flown, the 
flight training time may be reduced by a 
ratio of 1 hour of flight time to 2 hours of 
airplane simulator time, or 3 hours of flight 
engineer training device time, as the case 
may be, subject to the following limitations: 

(

a

) Except as provided in subdivision (

b

) of 

this paragraph, the required flight instruc-
tion time in an airplane may not be less than 
5 hours. 

(

b

) As to a flight engineer student holding 

at least a commercial pilot certificate with 
an instrument rating, airplane simulator or 
a combination of airplane simulator and 
flight engineer training device time may be 
submitted for up to all 10 hours of the re-
quired flight instruction time in an airplane. 
However, not more than 15 hours of flight en-
gineer training device time may be sub-
stituted for flight instruction time. 

(v) To obtain credit for flight training 

time, airplane simulator time, or flight engi-
neer training device time, the student must 
occupy the flight engineer station and oper-
ate the controls. 

(b) 

Classroom equipment. 

Classroom equip-

ment should consist of systems and proce-
dural training devices, satisfactory to the 
Administrator, that duplicate the operation 
of the systems of the airplane in which the 
student is to receive his flight training. 

(c) 

Contracts or agreements. 

(1) An approved 

flight engineer course operator may contract 
with other persons to obtain suitable air-
planes, airplane simulators, or other train-
ing devices or equipment. 

(2) An operator who is approved to conduct 

both the flight engineer ground course and 
the flight engineer flight course may con-
tract with others to conduct one course or 
the other in its entirety but may not con-
tract with others to conduct both courses for 
the same airplane type. 

(3) An operator who has approval to con-

duct a flight engineer ground course or flight 
course for a type of airplane, but not both 
courses, may not contract with another per-
son to conduct that course in whole or in 
part. 

(4) An operator who contracts with another 

to conduct a flight engineer course may not 
authorize or permit the course to be con-
ducted in whole or in part by a third person. 

(5) In all cases, the course operator who is 

approved to operate the course is responsible 
for the nature and quality of the instruction 
given. 

(6) A copy of each contract authorized 

under this paragraph must be attached to 
each of the 3 copies of the course outline sub-
mitted for approval. 

(d) 

Instructors. 

(1) Only certificated flight 

engineers may give the flight instruction re-
quired by this appendix in an airplane, simu-
lator, or flight engineer training device. 

(2) There must be a sufficient number of 

qualified instructors available to prevent an 
excess ratio of students to instructors. 

(e) 

Revisions. 

(1) Requests for revisions of 

the course outlines, facilities or equipment 
must follow the procedures for original ap-
proval of the course. Revisions must be sub-
mitted in such form that an entire page or 
pages of the approved outline can be removed 
and replaced by the revisions. 

(2) The list of instructors may be revised at 

any time without request for approval, if the 
requirements of paragraph (d) of this appen-
dix are maintained. 

(f) 

Ground school credits. 

(1) Credit may be 

granted a student in the ground school 
course by the course operator for comparable 
previous training or experience that the stu-
dent can show by written evidence: however, 
the course operator must still meet the qual-
ity of instruction as described in paragraph 
(h) of this appendix. 

(2) Before credit for previous training or 

experience may be given, the student must 
pass a test given by the course operator on 
the subject for which the credit is to be 
given. The course operator shall incorporate
