and the ability to execute emergency procedures is checked in

such a way as to demonstrate the pilot’s competence on each

type or variant of a type of aeroplane. Where the operation

may be conducted under instrument flight rules, the operator

shall ensure that the pilot’s competence to comply with such

rules is demonstrated to either a check pilot of the operator or

to a representative of the State of the Operator. Such checks

shall be performed twice within any period of one year. Any

by the State of the Operator may be used for those parts of

the checks for which they are specifically approved.

check in an aircraft or FSTD

without coming into close

proximity of another person
