(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
