When must a recreational pilot have a pilot-in-command flight check?
A
Every 400 hours.
B
Every 180 days.
C
If the pilot has less than 400 total flight hours and has not flown as pilot in command in an aircraft within the preceding 180 days.✓ Correct Answer
Explanation
14 CFR 61.101(g) says a recreational pilot with fewer than 400 flight hours who has not logged pilot-in-command time within the preceding 180 days may not act as PIC until receiving flight training from an authorized instructor and a logbook endorsement. There is no recurring check every 400 hours or every 180 days regardless of experience.
