systems/facilities and radar services appro-
priate to instrument flight; and 

(iv) Three hours of flight training in a mul-

tiengine airplane within 2 calendar months 
before the date of the practical test. 

(2) For the commercial pilot certificate, 

the course requires 10 hours of training on 
the areas of operations under appendix D of 
part 141, paragraph 4(d)(2). A flight simulator 
and flight training device cannot be used 
more than 3 hours to meet the training re-
quirements, and use of the flight training de-
vice is limited to 2 hours of the 3 hours per-
mitted. The course must include— 

(i) Five hours of instrument training in a 

multiengine airplane that must include 
training using a view-limiting device on for 
attitude instrument flying, partial panel 
skills, recovery from unusual flight atti-
tudes, and intercepting and tracking naviga-
tional systems; 

(ii) Ten hours of training in a multiengine 

airplane that has retractable landing gear, 
flaps, and a controllable pitch propeller, or is 
turbine-powered; 

(iii) One 2-hour cross country flight during 

daytime conditions in a multiengine air-
plane and, a total straight-line distance of 
more than 100 nautical miles from the origi-
nal point of departure; 

(iv) One 2-hour cross country flight during 

nighttime conditions in a multiengine air-
plane and, a total straight-line distance of 
more than 100 nautical miles from the origi-
nal point of departure; and 

(v) Three hours of flight training in a mul-

tiengine airplane within 2 calendar months 
before the date of the practical test. 

(3) For the airline transport pilot certifi-

cate, the course requires 25 hours of training 
in a multiengine airplane on the areas of op-
eration of appendix E to part 141, paragraph 
4.(c) that includes 15 hours of instrument 
training. A flight simulator and flight train-
ing device cannot be used more than 12.5 
hours to meet the training requirements, 
and use of the flight training device is lim-
ited to 6.25 hours of the 12.5 hours permitted. 

(l) Course for a rotorcraft additional heli-

copter class rating. 

(1) For the recreational pilot certificate, 

the course requires 3 hours of flight training 
on the areas of operations under appendix A 
of part 141, paragraph 4.(c)(2) that includes— 

(i) Two hours of flight training to and at 

an airport that is located more than 25 nau-
tical miles from the airport where the appli-
cant normally trains, with three takeoffs 
and three landings, except as provided under 
§ 61.100 of this chapter; and 

(ii) Three hours of flight training in a heli-

copter within 2 calendar months before the 
date of the practical test. 

(2) For the private pilot certificate, the 

course requires 3 hours flight training on the 
areas of operations under appendix B of part 
141, paragraph 4.(d)(3). A flight simulator and 

flight training device cannot be used more 
than 0.6 hours to meet the training require-
ments, and use of the flight training device 
is limited to 0.4 hours of the 0.6 hours per-
mitted. The course must include— 

(i) Three hours of cross country training in 

a helicopter, except as provided under § 61.111 
of this chapter; 

(ii) Three hours of nighttime flight train-

ing in a helicopter that includes one cross 
country flight of more than 50 nautical miles 
total distance, and 10 takeoffs and 10 land-
ings to a full stop (with each landing involv-
ing a flight in the traffic pattern) at an air-
port; and 

(iii) Three hours of flight training in a hel-

icopter within 2 calendar months before the 
date of the practical test. 

(3) For the commercial pilot certificate, 

the course requires 5 hours flight training on 
the areas of operations under appendix D of 
part 141, paragraph 4.(d)(3). Use of a flight 
simulator and flight training device in the 
approved training course cannot exceed 1 
hour; however, use of the flight training de-
vice cannot exceed 0.7 of the one hour. The 
course must include— 

(i) Five hours on the control and maneu-

vering of a helicopter solely by reference to 
instruments, and must include training 
using a view-limiting device for attitude in-
strument flying, partial panel skills, recov-
ery from unusual flight attitudes, and inter-
cepting and tracking navigational systems. 
This aeronautical experience may be per-
formed in an aircraft, flight simulator, flight 
training device, or an aviation training de-
vice; 

(ii) One 2-hour cross country flight during 

daytime conditions in a helicopter and, a 
total straight-line distance of more than 50 
nautical miles from the original point of de-
parture; 

(iii) One 2-hour cross country flight during 

nighttime conditions in a helicopter and a 
total straight-line distance of more than 50 
nautical miles from the original point of de-
parture; and 

(iv) Three hours of flight training in a heli-

copter within 2 calendar months before the 
date of the practical test. 

(4) For the airline transport pilot certifi-

cate, the course requires 25 hours of flight 
training in a helicopter on the areas of oper-
ation under appendix E of part 141, para-
graph 4.(c) that includes 15 hours of instru-
ment training. A flight simulator and flight 
training device cannot be used more than 
12.5 hours to meet the training requirements, 
and use of the flight training device is lim-
ited to 6.25 hours of the 12.5 hours permitted. 

(m) Course for a rotorcraft additional gyro-

plane class rating. 

(1) For the recreational pilot certificate, 

the course requires 3 hours flight training on 
the areas of operations of appendix A to part
