Actual flight hour accumulated while in the engagement of the commuter operations may, only for the first time, be accounted as the logged flight hours when the pilot is desirous of re-qualification for the higher rating of the Heavy Jet Aircraft.

For instance, a captain of the commuter aircraft having 46 flight hours will be eligible for the check flight of the B767 First Flight Officer. The check flight will be performed using the criteria of the regular periodical check flight. In the event of failure, the pilot will be given the rating of the Flight Officer.

• Date of flight
• Route number
• Aircraft type,
• Actual flight hours
• Coefficient for the conversion of flight time.
• Number of passengers.
  
• Password, as given at the end of flight (CAT-F LINE only)

  Example:
  @PN981201,1999/04/13,PJA101,B4,1.0,1.7,345,**********
  @PN981201,1999/04/13,PJA102,B4,1.25,1.2,360,*********

When CAT-F LINE is assigned and flown, FLIGHT TIME, COEFFICIENT for the conversion of flight time and Number of Passengers will be displayed at the end of adventure flight. However, flight time shall not exceed the maximum flight time applicable to the respective CAT-F route.

Even if acutual flight time exceeds the maximum flight time, the given flight time will be limited to the maximum, and 1.0 or more will be given as the COEFFICIENT at the end of adventure flight.
