:,q3 :: ‘“‘;’

U. S. Department of Commerce Civil Aeronautics Administration Civil Aeronautics Manuals and supplements thereto are issued by the Office of Aviation Safety, Civil Aeronautics Administration, for the guidance of the public and are published in the Federal Register and Code of Federal Regulations.

Supplement No. 5 February 15,1956

SUBJECT:Revisions to Civil Aeronautics Manual 42 Dated August 1954. The question has been raised as to whether or not & pilot-in-command or other pilot, newly employed by an irregular air carrier, must receive & B-month equipment check from the check pilot of the company by which he is being employed, even though he had successfully completed, within the previous 6 months, an equipment check given by the company check pilot of another air carrier. A similar problem is also involved in regard to the B-month instrument check required for a pilot-in-command.

Therefore section 42.44-5 is added to indicate clearly which persons are authorized to conduct the equipment and instrument checks required by section 42.44 of this part.

Section 42.44-6 is added for the purpose of permitting an airman assigned to check other flight engineers to apply time spent in giving flight engineer checks toward the recent experienee requirements of section 42.44, provided that such experience has been obtained within the preceding 12 months.

NOTE: Revised m&e&al is indicated by brackets [ 1. The date the material appeared in the Federal Register and the effective date of the material is indicated at the end of each section of the manual.
