THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 February 2008 on common rules                           in the field of civil aviation and establishing a European Aviation Safety Agency, and repealing Council Directive 91/670/EEC,                           Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 and Directive 2004/36/EC(1), and in particular Articles 7(5) and 7(6),                        

Whereas:

(1)Commission Regulation (EU) No 1178/2011(2) lays down the technical and administrative procedures related to civil aviation aircrew.

(2)Some Member States have found that certain requirements of Regulation (EU) No 1178/2011 place an undue and disproportionate                              administrative or economic burden on themselves or on stakeholders and have requested derogations from certain requirements                              in accordance with Article 14(6) of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008.

(3)The derogation requests have been analysed by the European Aviation Safety Agency, which in turn have resulted in a recommendation                              to the Commission to adopt certain derogations.

(4)A number of editorial errors leading to unintended implementation difficulties have also been identified in Commission Regulation                              (EU) No 1178/2011 by Member States.

(5)Therefore, the existing requirements should be amended in order to introduce the derogations that have a clear rulemaking                              effect and to correct editorial errors.

(6)Further, Commission Regulation (EU) No 1178/2011 contains in Annex I (Part-FCL) requirements for training and checking towards                              an instrument rating (IR). These requirements for the IR were based on the former JAR-FCL requirements, and a need for their                              review has been identified.

(7)Therefore, additional requirements for the qualification to fly in instrument meteorological conditions and specific requirements                              for sailplane cloud flying operations should be introduced.

(8)In order to ensure that instrument training or experience gained before the application of this Regulation may be taken into                              account for the purpose of obtaining these ratings, the conditions for crediting this training, or the instrument experience                              gained should be laid down.

(9)It should be possible for Member States to give credit for the instrument experience of a third-country rating holder if a                              level of safety equivalent to that specified by Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 can be guaranteed. Conditions for recognising                              this experience should also be laid down.

(10)In order to ensure a smooth transition and a high uniform level of civil aviation safety in the European Union, implementing                              measures should reflect the state of the art, including best practices, and scientific and technical progress in the field                              of pilot training. Accordingly, technical requirements and administrative procedures agreed by the International Civil Aviation                              Organization (ICAO) and the already developed requirements in Annex I (Part-FCL) to Regulation (EU) No 1178/2011 as well as                              the existing national legislation, pertaining to a specific national environment, should be considered and reflected by this                              set of rules taking into account the specific needs of General Aviation pilots in Europe.

(11)The Agency prepared draft Implementing Rules and submitted them as an Opinion to the Commission in accordance with Article                              19(1) of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008.

(12)Member States that have established a national system for authorising pilots to fly in Instrument Meteorological Conditions                              (IMC) with limited privileges restricted to the national airspace of the Member State, and that can provide evidence that                              the system is safe and that there is a specific local need, should be allowed to continue to issue such authorisations for                              a limited period, subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions.

(13)Commission Regulation (EU) 965/2012(3) allows certain flights such as cost-sharing flights and introductory flights to be performed in accordance with the rules                              applicable to non-commercial operations of non-complex aircraft. There is, therefore, a need to ensure that the privileges                              of pilots established in Regulation (EU) 1178/2011 are consistent with this approach.

(14)Therefore, it should be allowed to have flights of those categories identified in Regulation (EU) 965/2012 to be piloted by                              PPL, SPL, BPL or LAPL holders.

(15)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the European Aviation Safety Agency Committee                              established by Article 65 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008

(16)Regulation (EU) No 1178/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly,

(c)the privileges of the authorisation shall be limited to the airspace of the Member State’s national territory or parts of                                    it;

The privilege may be extended to conduct flights                                                   by night under IFR in the en route phase of flight if the pilot holds a night rating in accordance with FCL.810.                                             

The holder of the EIR shall only commence or continue a flight on which he/she intends to exercise the privileges of his/her                                                   rating if the latest available meteorological information indicates that:                                             

the weather conditions on departure are such as to enable the segment of the flight from take-off to a planned VFR-to-IFR                                                            transition to be conducted in compliance with VFR; and

To determine the amount of hours to be credited and to establish the training needs, the applicant shall complete a pre-entry                                                   assessment at the ATO.                                             

The completion of the instrument flight instruction provided by an IRI(A) or FI(A) shall be documented in a specific training                                                   record and signed by the instructor.

#### GENERAL

##### 1.The aim of the competency-based modular flying training course is to train PPL or CPL holders for the instrument rating, taking                                             into account prior instrument flight instruction and experience. It is designed to provide the level of proficiency needed                                             to operate aeroplanes under IFR and in IMC. The course shall consist of a combination of instrument flight instruction provided                                             by an IRI(A) or an FI(A) holding the privilege to provide training for the IR and flight instruction within an ATO.

##### 2.An applicant for such a competency-based modular IR(A) shall be the holder of a PPL(A) or CPL(A).

##### 3.The course of theoretical instruction shall be completed within 18 months. The instrument flight instruction and the skill                                             test shall be completed within the period of validity of the pass of the theoretical knowledge examinations.

##### 4.The course shall comprise:

theoretical knowledge instruction to the IR(A) knowledge level;                                             

instrument flight instruction.                                             

#### THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE

##### 5.An approved competency-based modular IR(A) course shall comprise at least 80 hours of theoretical knowledge instruction. The                                             theoretical knowledge course may contain computer-based training and e-learning elements.
