In a Final Rule Correction published today, the FAA is correcting the compliance date for the Final Rule it published on August 31, 2011. As you may recall, the Final Rule established a pilot in command proficiency check requirement for PICs of turbojet aircraft. However, since the Final Rule will be effective October 31, 2011, the FAA realized that the 60 days between publication of the Final Rule and its effective date did not provide sufficient time for pilots to comply with the new requirement. As a result, the FAA is extending the compliance date to October 31, 2012 to provide a one year transition period within which turbojet pilots can complete an FAR 61.58 PIC proficiency check required by the Final Rule.
