Just out of curiosity, if there were no taa certified pilots aboard the aircraft, and the aircraft was a taa aircraft, can a CFIl legally fly the plane by himself? l am not really sure if there are any fars that even talk about taa aircraft... at least l cant find any on the internet! Thanks so much for those that answer my question!!
Yes, assuming the particular TAA does not require a type rating (or some other rating he does not have). The designation ''TAA'' (technologically advanced aircraft) has no precise definition by law & there r no special legal requirements for flying them.
Though the FAA does have an accepted definition, it is not part of any law or requirement. The FAA considers any aircraft with a GPS with a moving map in the panel to be a TAA, which is kind of silly. If u think about it, having a special requirement for a TAA would not really make any sense. Imagine a CFII who has been flying a particular simple aircraft, say a Cessna 172, safely for years. One day, the plane gets a shiny new GPS with a moving map. Should we suddenly require new training for the guy to fly it?
On the flip side, if he has to rely on the GPS for IFR navigation, he damn well had better know how to use it. Being legal does not make it smart, of course.
Just like a CFII (with a single-engine airplane rating) who has never flown any Cessna can hop in a 172 & fly it.
Do you mean FAA?
what is taa?
