§ 121.403 

airplane or another crewmember posi-
tion, need not be repeated during sub-
sequent training other than recurrent 
training. 

(e) A person who progresses success-

fully through flight training, is rec-
ommended by his instructor or a check 
airman, and successfully completes the 
appropriate flight check for a check 
airman or the Administrator, need not 
complete the programmed hours of 
flight training for the particular air-
plane. However, whenever the Adminis-
trator finds that 20 percent of the 
flight checks given at a particular 
training base during the previous 6 
months under this paragraph are un-
successful, this paragraph may not be 
used by the certificate holder at that 
base until the Administrator finds that 
the effectiveness of the flight training 
there has improved. 

In the case of a certificate holder using 
a course of training permitted in 
§ 121.409(c), the Administrator may re-
quire the programmed hours of inflight 
training in whole or in part, until he 
finds the effectiveness of the flight 
training has improved as provided in 
paragraph (e) of this section.
