§ 121.445

Pilot in command airport 

qualification: Special areas and air-

(a) The Administrator may deter-

mine that certain airports (due to 
items such as surrounding terrain, ob-
structions, or complex approach or de-
parture procedures) are special airports 
requiring special airport qualifications 
and that certain areas or routes, or 
both, require a special type of naviga-
tion qualification. 

(b) Except as provided in paragraph 

(c) of this section, no certificate holder 
may use any person, nor may any per-
son serve, as pilot in command to or 
from an airport determined to require 
special airport qualifications unless, 
within the preceding 12 calendar 
months: 

(1) The pilot in command or second in 

command has made an entry to that 
airport (including a takeoff and land-
ing) while serving as a pilot flight 
crewmember; or 

(2) The pilot in command has quali-

fied by using pictorial means accept-
able to the Administrator for that air-
port. 

(c) Paragraph (b) of this section does 

not apply when an entry to that air-
port (including a takeoff or a landing) 
is being made if the ceiling at that air-
port is at least 1,000 feet above the low-
est MEA or MOCA, or initial approach 
altitude prescribed for the instrument 
approach procedure for that airport, 
and the visibility at that airport is at 
least 3 miles. 

(d) No certificate holder may use any 

person, nor may any person serve, as 
pilot in command between terminals 
over a route or area that requires a 
special type of navigation qualification 
unless, within the preceding 12 cal-
endar months, that person has dem-
onstrated qualification on the applica-
ble navigation system in a manner ac-

ceptable to the Administrator, by one 
of the following methods: 

(1) By flying over a route or area as 

pilot in command using the applicable 
special type of navigation system. 

(2) By flying over a route or area as 

pilot in command under the super-

ance with § 121.425(a)(2) satisfies the re-
quirements of paragraph (a) of this sec-
