Sport Pilot Practical Test Standards - Weight Shift Control, Powered Parachute, Flight Instructor Federal Aviation Administration

Sport Aviation Publications reprints the most current FAA Practical Test Standards in this series of cockpit-sized guides. This is the Sport Pilot Practical Test Standards for Weight Shift Control, Powered Parachute, and Flight Instructor (FAA-S-8081-31). This guide is the one used for the Sport Pilot Flight Instructor check-ride for CFI-S, subpart K. The FAA Practical Test Standards are used by instructors, students, and examiners to prepare for, review, take, or issue the check-ride. Each PTS is written by the FAA and details the type and levels of skill and knowledge that must be demonstrated before an examiner can issue a certificate or rating to an applicant, and describes background study and reference materials.
