Pt. 63, App. C 

(f) 

Students records and reports. Approval of 

a course shall not be continued in effect un-
less the course operator keeps an accurate 
record of each student, including a chrono-
logical log of all instruction, subjects cov-
ered and course examinations and grades, 
and unless he prepares and transmits to the 
local Flight Standards District Office not 
later than January 31 of each year, a report 
containing the following information for the 
previous calendar year: 

(1) The names of all students graduated, 

together with their school grades for ground 
and flight subjects. 

(2) The names of all students failed or 

dropped, together with their school grades 
and reasons for dropping. 

(g) 

Quality of instruction. Approval of a 

course shall not be continued in effect unless 
at least 80 percent of the students who apply 
within 90 days after graduation are able to 
qualify on the first attempt for certification 
as flight navigators. 

(h) 

Statement of graduation. Each student 

who successfully completes an approved 
flight navigator course shall be given a 
statement of graduation. 

(i) 

Inspections.  Approved course operations 

will be inspected by authorized representa-
tives of the Administrator as often as 
deemed necessary to insure that instruction 
is maintained at the required standards, but 
the period between inspections shall not ex-
ceed 12 months. 

(j) 

Change of ownership, name, or location— 

(1) 

Change of ownership. Approval of a flight 

navigator course shall not be continued in 
effect after the course has changed owner-
ship. The new owner must obtain a new ap-
proval by following the procedure prescribed 
for original approval. 

(2) 

Change in name. An approved course 

changed in name but not changed in owner-
ship shall remain valid if the change is re-
ported by the approved course operator to 
the local Flight Standards District Office. A 
letter of approval under the new name will 
be issued by the regional office. 

(3) 

Change in location. An approved course 

shall remain in effect even though the ap-
proved course operator changes location if 
the change is reported without delay by the 
operator to the local Flight Standards Dis-
trict Office, which will inspect the facilities 
to be used. If they are found to be adequate, 
a letter of approval showing the new location 
will be issued by the regional office. 

(k) 

Cancellation of approval. (1) Failure to 

meet or maintain any of the requirements 
set forth in this section for the approval or 
operation of an approved flight navigator 
course shall be considered sufficient reason 
for cancellation of the approval. 

(2) If an operator should desire voluntary 

cancellation of his approved course, he 
should submit the effective letter of ap-
proval and a written request for cancellation 

to the Administrator through the local 
Flight Standards District Office. 

(l) 

Duration.  The authority to operate an 

approved flight navigator course shall expire 
24 months after the last day of the month of 
issuance. 

(m) 

Renewal. Application for renewal of au-

thority to operate an approved flight navi-
gator course may be made by letter to the 
local Flight Standards District Office at any 
time within 60 days before to the expiration 
date. Renewal of approval will depend upon 
the course operator meeting the current con-
ditions for approval and having a satisfac-
tory record as an operator.

(a) 

Training course outline—(1)  Format.  The 

ground course outline and the flight course 
outline are independent. Each must be con-
tained in a looseleaf binder to include a table 
of contents. If an applicant desires approval 
of both a ground school course and a flight 
school course, they must be combined in one 
looseleaf binder that includes a separate 
table of contents for each course. Separate 
course outlines are required for each type of 
airplane. 

(2) 

Ground course outline. (i) It is not man-

datory that the subject headings be arranged 
exactly as listed in this paragraph. Any ar-
rangement of subjects is satisfactory if all 
the subject material listed here is included 
and at least the minimum programmed 
hours are assigned to each subject. Each gen-
eral subject must be broken down into detail 
showing the items to be covered. 

(ii) If any course operator desires to in-

clude additional subjects in the ground 
course curriculum, such as international 
law, flight hygiene, or others that are not re-
quired, the hours allotted these additional 
subjects may not be included in the min-
imum programmed classroom hours. 

(iii) The following subjects and classroom 

hours are the minimum programmed cov-
erage for the initial approval of a ground 
training course for flight engineers. Subse-
quent to initial approval of a ground train-
ing course an applicant may apply to the Ad-
ministrator for a reduction in the pro-
grammed hours. Approval of a reduction in 
the approved programmed hours is based on 
improved training effectiveness due to im-
provements in methods, training aids, qual-
ity of instruction, or any combination there-
of.
