The "Boys (and Girls) From Berlin" are major participants in the GA
system of the western United States.

So too, I believe, are pilots training for SAS (the airline, not the
British Military.)


and the pilots of JAL over in Napa; but I somehow don't think they
will be much affected by the new rules (all taken care of by their
employers, they won't even know it); besides, I wouldn't be
surprised if there weren't any exemption in place for such training
arrangements in the first place.

Interesting point...

However, the two times that I've been able to say hello to any of the
Lufthansa folks, the IP flying with them said they were just "run of the
mill" freelance CFIs.

So honestly, I'm not sure what the employment situation is for these
instructors or for the contracted operations with whom the "ab initio"
pilots are flying.

Jay,

Exactly my point. They have set up a school outside Germany. And no GA in
Germany is needed - at all. Same for JAL. So how, pray, tell, would a GA
pilot in Germany explain to his government that GA in Germany is needed as
a birthplace for future LH pilots?

Matin, Martin, tsk, tsk, tsk... Remember DAS LIED DER DEUTSCHEN! Their
attitude is exactly what got them selected for professional pilot
training...

Good point. Where I come from, they don't even need a rental truck

I've known a few instructors that worked for the Lufthansa training
centers in Arizona. They were basically freelance CFIs contracting
with the schools. I imagine that they will have to meet the same
requirements as any other instructor that teaches foreign students, but
my guess is that the school will take care of the bulk of the paperwork
and reporting requirements for them. It is, after all, a very large
high-dollar organization (have you seen their private, towered airport
in Mobile, AZ?).

Hi John,

Yup, I've seen it while on the way to Yuma via the Gila Bend VORTAC.

Hope you had a great Christmas!

RobsSanta,

Does the TSA actually believe that this stupid rule is actually going to
stop those who intend the US harm, from obtaining flight training from other
sources.


No, they believe the public will feel better with this rule in place, which in
turn will allow those running the TSA to remain in power since the public will
vote for them. But you probably knew that...

Errr... No?
