Transponder and Altimeter Checks
by Francis Griffiths
Can I fy VFR outside of controlled airspace if the transponder and altimeter 24 month check is out of date? ANSWER: If you were in the U.S. I would say yes. However, FAR 91 does not apply to operations outside the U.S. FAR 91.411 - Altimeter system and altitude reporting equipment tests and inspections. FAR 91.413 - ATC transponder tests and inspections. So, you must adhere to the operational rules of the specific ICAO member country you are flying in. In this case England and France. |
