who successfully completes an approved
flight engineer ground school training
course, and passes the FAA written test, a
statement of successful completion of the
course that indicates the date of training,

course training was based, and the number of
hours received in the ground school course.
(2) The course operator shall give each stu-

flight engineer flight course, and passed the
FAA practical test, a statement of successful
completion of the flight course that indi-
