New intsrument rating PTS

There is just about a month before the new instrument rating PTS takes
effect on October 1. This is a major re-write with standards for GPS and
autopilot coupled approaches (now required if the aircraft is equipped),
guidelines for partial panel approaches in aircraft with glass cockpits, and
mandatory items to be covered during an instrument proficiency check. Many
old requirements have been eliminated: steep turns, stalls, unusual attitude
recoveries, etc.

If you are a CFII or instrument student you should be getting up to speed on
this new PTS now.
