You do realize that NONE of the above pertains to IAPs, don't you?

What parts of "...pertinent to his certificate...", or "...visual contact
flying..." confuses you so badly?


It is you that is confused. Jose asked, "How many newly minted VFR pilots
even know how to read an approach plate?" I responded, "Every newly minted
VFR pilot should be able to identify the fixes in the plan view of an IAP."
If one has the knowledge of aeronautical charts required by FAR 61.105 then
one has the knowledge to examine the legend and plan views of IAPs in a TPP
and determine the locations of FAFs.
