allowed for ground trainers in an approved pilot training course.
b. FAR $141.41(a)(2) provides for the use of ground trainers that do not meet the more complex requirements of FAR 9
141.41(a). There is a large number of ground trainers currently being used by pilot schools that do not meet all of the requirements in FAR 8
141.41(a). Because these trainers can be used to provide effective instruction in certain operations required in an approved course of training, provisions for their use have been made. It is imperative that the training syllabus clearly define their use. Because of their limitations, full credit against flight time is not to be allowed for instruction in such trainers. The provisions in Appendixes A, C, D, E, and F allow credit for instruction in ground trainers. However, the credit received in ground trainers not covered under FAR 6
141.41(a)(l) cannot exceed 50 percent of the credit allowed in a ground trainer that does meet all of the requirements of FAR 5
141.41(a)(l).
c. Substitution of a ground training device must be used with discretion when developing a training syllabus that substitutes ground trainer instruction for the flight time required in a complex airplane. Any use of a ground trainer in lieu of flight time in a complex airplane should be justified with clearly stated learning outcomes in the training syllabus that support the skills expected to be learned in such an airplane. A ground trainer may not be used for more than 50 percent of the curriculum requirements related to training required in a complex aircraft. Approval of a TCO which substitutes a ground training device in lieu of
a complex airplane will be based on the ability of the ground trainer to provide effective training for this kind of airplane if a ground trainer is to be used.
49. STAGE AND FINAL TESTS. As provided in FAR 0
141.55, during the development of a training syllabus, an appropriate number of stage checks are to be included in both ground training and flight courses to measure the student’s accomplishment for each stage of training. This should ensure standardization and compliance with the approved TCO.
a.
Stage checks must be given by the chief flight
instructor who is responsible for a particular course of training or by a designated assistant chief flight instructor or appropriately qualified instructors. While stage checks may be delegated to appropriately qualified instructors, final checks may only be given by the chief instructor or assistant chief instructor. Proper entries are to be made in the student’s training record, noting the student’s accomplishments and recommending corrective training, if necessary.

b.
The appendixes of FAR Part 141 allow a certain amount of the time acquired during stage and final tests to be credited toward the ground training and flight time required by the particular curriculum. The time required for a stage or final test can vary significantly with each student. Even though only a specific amount of time acquired through these checks may be credited, every effort should be made to provide adequate time for objective and complete testing even though the total course time may exceed the time prescribed in the curriculum.
