2120-AL14 202504 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 2120 Federal Aviation Administration FAA 2100 Department of Transportation DOT Flight Simulation Training Device Usage in Training Programs

This action would align the pilot training tasks and authorized Flight Simulation Training Device (FSTD) levels used in air carrier training programs to the technical FSTD qualification standards that are defined in Part 60. This action will also incorporate additional Part 60 defined FSTD levels into the pilot training and proficiency checking requirements which will provide air carriers with additional options to utilize lower fidelity and less costly FSTDs where appropriate for specific training tasks.
