Title 14: Aeronautics and Space

PART 61-CERTIFICATION: PILOTS, FLIGHT INSTRUCTORS, AND GROUND
INSTRUCTORS

§ 61.105 Aeronautical knowledge.

(a) General. A person who is applying for a private pilot certificate
must receive and log ground training from an authorized instructor or
complete a home-study course on the aeronautical knowledge areas of
paragraph (b) of this section that apply to the aircraft category and
class rating sought.

(4) Use of aeronautical charts for VFR navigation using pilotage, dead
reckoning, and navigation systems;

(5) Radio communication procedures;
