Conversion of RFE(A/H) into FE(A/H) and RFIE(A/H) into FIE(A/H)

This conversion report addresses the conversion of a Recreational Flight Examiner (RFE) authorization into a certificate for Flight Examiner restricted to the conduct of skill tests and proficiency checks for the Light Aircraft Pilot Licence.

This conversion report addresses also the conversion of an examiner authorization for Flight Instructor Examiner (FIE) into an examiner certificate for FIE. The privileges of a FIE on aeroplanes are to conduct assessments of competence for the issue, revalidation or renewal of certificates for FI(A) and CRI(A) on single-pilot aeroplanes, provided that the relevant instructor certificate is held. The privileges of a FIE on helicopters are to conduct assessments of competence for the issue, revalidation or renewal of certificates for FI(H) and TRI(H) on single-pilot helicopters, provided that the relevant instructor certificate is held.

This document describes the way a RFE (A) with regard to SEP and TMG will be converted into a FE(A) by Civil Aviation Authority The Netherlands (CAA). This document does not describe the way a Flight Examiner for sailplanes conducting skill tests and proficiency checks on a TMG will be converted into a FE(S) to conduct skilltests for the extension of the SPL or LAPL(S) privileges to TMG. This will be addressed in the conversion report of a FE for Sailplanes into a FE(S). The same applies for the Flight Instructor Examiner (FIE) for Sailplanes into a FIE(S).
