CHECKING AND QUALIFICATION
No new hire pilot will serve in the capacity of Pilot in Command in the BN-2A Islander aircraft until all training modules of the initial new hire training curriculum have been successfully completed and the candidate has been tested in accordance with FAR's 135.293, and 135.299 by an authorized check airman or an FAA Inspector. Pilots with previous BN-2A Islander experience, who have been trained and have flown for another 135 Air Carrier having an approved BN-2A Islander training program, may receive credit for the ground and flight training and may not need to comply with all the ground and flight training requirements of this program. This is valid only for pilots who have received training within the previous 12 calendar months.
Pilots with a current BN-2A Islander Competency/Proficiency Check from another air carrier, who have been trained under the other carrier's approved training program, need only to comply with the Initial New Hired Training(operator specific, airman specific, general emergency, differences training,(if applicable)) and the written examination on company specifics.
