Safety Pilot Requirements
• Question #1: Can A CAP Pilot Who Is Active In CAP But
Does Not Have A Current CAPF5 Act As Safety Pilot For
A CAP Flight?
– No. The Safety Pilot Is A Required Crewmember. As Such,
Under CAP Rules, He Must Have A Current CAPF5 For The
“CAP Group” Of Aircraft Flown.
• Question #2: Can Any Pilot Act As A Safety Pilot With An
Expired Medical?
– No. Far 91.109(b)(1) Indicates That A Safety Pilot Must Possess
A Private Pilot Certificate. Far 61.23(a)(3)(i) Indicates A Pilot
Must Hold At Least A 3rd Class Medical When Exercising The
Privileges Of A Private Pilot Certificate. Therefore to Act As
Safety Pilot (Required Crewmember) You Must Have A Valid
Medical (Decision Rendered 6/17/85.)

Operations Conducted…With Inoperative Instruments and Equipment
Without An Approved MEL…For Which a Master MEL Has Not Been
Developed…Provided The Inoperative Equipment Are Not Part of The
VFR-Day Type Certification…And A Determination Is Made By A
Pilot…That The Inoperative Instrument or Equipment Does Not
Constitute a Hazard to The Aircraft.” (Note: The Inop Equipment
Should Be Deactivated, i.e. Switch Off or CB Pulled AND placarded
INOP)

The Examiner Fills Out A CAPF-5 And Provides It to The
STANEVAL Officer For Signature. Can The STANEVAL
Officer Approve The Pilot For CAP Operations:
A. For A New CAP Pilot?
– No. CAPR 60-1 Paragraph 3-5a. States That “An Initial CAPF5 Flight
Check Administered By A CAP Check Pilot Must Be Satisfactorily
Completed Prior To Designation of A CAP Member As A CAP Pilot.”
B. For A CAP Pilot Performing An Annual
Check?

Night Currency vs. Night Proficiency
• Night Currency – Per FAR 61.57(b)(1)
– Three Takeoffs And Three Landings To A Full Stop During The Period
Beginning 1 Hour After Sunset And Ending 1 Hour Before Sunrise
• Night Proficiency – Per Don D.
– Qualified, Competent and SAFE Operations of Aircraft At Night
• Includes Much More Than Three Takeoffs and Landings
• General CAP Pilots (If Planning Nighttime Flying)
– Night Currency Mandatory
– Night Proficiency Important
• Mission Pilots
– Night Currency and Proficiency Is A Must
• Although Not Specifically Required Per Regulation, Lack of Night Currency
Prohibits Availability For Night Missions
• Lack of Night Proficiency Increases Safety Risk During Night Ops
