90

° 

from the final approach course of 

the simulated instrument portion of

Training in the circling approach maneuver is not 

required for a pilot employed by a certificate 
holder subject to the operating rules of Part 
121 of this chapter if the certificate holder’s 
manual prohibits a circling approach in weath-
er conditions below 1000–3 (ceiling and visi-
bility); for a SIC if the certificate holder’s man-
ual prohibits the SIC from performing a circling 
approach in operations under this part.

(o) Zero-flap approaches. Training in this 

maneuver is not required for a particular 
airplane type if the Administrator has de-
termined that the probability of flap exten-
sion failure on that type airplane is ex-
tremely remote due to system design. In 
making this determination, the Adminis-
trator determines whether training on slats 
only and partial flap approaches is nec-
essary.
