Question for current flight instructors

[cjscinta]

Hello all,

I keep my CFI updated but I haven't flown a single engine piston in a long time. I want to do a BFR and an IPC for a friend and was wondering where to find examples of the proper endorsements and some q and a, syllabus info. etc. Thanks for any help.

AC 61-65E will have the endorsements.

For the IPC look in the Instrument PTS and there is a table showing you what Tasks need to be completed.

Also 61.57(d) is another reference for the IPC.

Hope this helps!
