CFI Checkride Question

[Crispin]

Hi everyone,

Fairly new CFI here with stupid (probably) question...

I've instructed 11 students so far. The previous 10 all passed their practical tests...unfortunately, #11 just failed one area of op. on his instrument ride. I know what we need to do flying wise, but I'm confused about the whole endorsement/IACRA business.

After I fly with him and get him up to speed does he have to complete IACRA from scratch all over again (now stating that he has failed a test)? I assume so because his application is no longer in there. Additionally, do I give him the same endorsements as before (61.39 & 61.65).

I've read 61.43(f)(3)&(4) and this is how I am interpreting it but guidance from the more experienced CFIs is appreciated.

Thanks!

Sigh. Like you I have yet to have a retest since the IACRA age. I interpret it the same way you do.

But I'd just ring up the DPE and see what he says.

Yes.

Yes.

BTW, 10/11 is good work.

Thanks so much Bruce and Ron!
