GM1 SFCL.130(a)(2)(iv)  SPL – Training course and experience requirements

ED Decision 2020/004/R

USE OF TMGs DURING TRAINING FOR THE INITIAL ISSUE OF AN SPL WITHOUT TMG PRIVILEGES

For initial SPL training that does not include training for TMG privileges, TMGs can be used for a maximum of 8 hours (point SFCL.130(a)(2)(iv)). It follows from the objective of such a training course that all training exercises completed on a TMG must consist of pure gliding manoeuvres, without any TMG-specific manoeuvres. Such pure gliding training in a TMG can be provided by FI(S) certificate holders who do not hold the TMG instructional privileges as specified in point SFCL.315(a)(4), provided that the instructor occupies the pilot seat from which all PIC functions can be executed.
