The answer is in the FAR/AIM part 61.197 (a), (b)

Would someone care to answer so we don't all have to go dig out our **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED**ing FAR/AIM's.

I could be just sleepy but it DOES NOT say when the original expires, just that the renewal expires in 24 calender months.

You could assume the same for the original but it does not say exactly when it is.

I dug it up.....

§ 61.19 Duration of pilot and instructor certificates.

(a) General. The holder of a certificate with an expiration date may not, after that date, exercise the privileges of that certificate.

(b) Student pilot certificate. A student pilot certificate expires 24 calendar months from the month in which it is issued.

(c) Other pilot certificates. A pilot certificate (other than a student pilot certificate) issued under this part is issued without a specific expiration date. The holder of a pilot certificate issued on the basis of a foreign pilot license may exercise the privileges of that certificate only while that person's foreign pilot license is effective.

(d) Flight instructor certificate. A flight instructor certificate:

(1) Is effective only while the holder has a current pilot certificate; and

(2) Except as specified in § 61.197(b) of this part, expires 24 calendar months from the month in which it was issued or renewed.

(e) Ground instructor certificate. A ground instructor certificate issued under this part is issued without a specific expiration date.

Amazing. All this looking up regulations and teeth gnashing to figure out the expiration date of a certificate that has the expiration date printed on it.

Alright, if his certificate expires at the end of September, what is the soonest he can take a recertification course on -ine or by sitting in a class for a couple days in order to keep the same expiration date?

I think I remember 3 calander months, so that would put it at June 1st??? ...Or would it be July 1st???

Thanks!

June 1. The window begins "3 calendar months preceding the expiration month of the current flight instructor certificate."

The expiration month is September, 3 months before September is June.

The certificate could be renewed today if the CFI has an 80% pass rate with at least 10 applicants, via the GoldSeal
