FOREWORD
The Airline Transport Pilot and Aircraft Type Rating—Airplane Practical
Test Standards (PTS) book has been published by the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) to establish the standards for airline transport pilot
and aircraft type rating practical tests for airplanes. FAA inspectors,
designated pilot examiners, and check airmen (referred to as examiners
throughout the remaining practical test standard) must conduct practical
tests in compliance with these standards. Flight instructors and
applicants should find these standards helpful in practical test
preparation.

INTRODUCTION
General Information
The Flight Standards Service of the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) has developed this practical test standard (PTS) to be used by
examiners1 when conducting airline transport pilot and aircraft type
rating practical tests in airplanes. Instructors are expected to address all
of the elements contained in this PTS when preparing applicants for
practical tests. Applicants should be familiar with this PTS and refer to
these standards during their training.

The FAA gratefully acknowledges the valuable assistance provided by
many individuals, companies, and organizations throughout the aviation
community who have contributed their time and talent in assisting with
the development of this practical test standard.
