FAA Proposes New Pilot Certification and Training Rules
Key Takeaways:

- Key proposed changes include allowing more instrument training with aviation training devices (ATDs), reducing ATD recency tasks, and permitting modern technically advanced airplanes for commercial pilot training.
- The rules would also allow sport pilot training hours to count towards higher certificates (Recreational or Private Pilot) and are anticipated to save pilots time and money while facilitating skill maintenance.
