Service Description

You can apply to the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt for the issue, extension, renewal, extension, renewal or amendment of an examiner authorization.

With the examiner authorization of the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt (LBA), you can examine applicants for pilot licenses and other aviation authorizations. Depending on the examiner authorization and aircraft category, holders have the right to carry out

  • practical examinations,
  • proficiency checks and
  • assessments of competence

for licenses and ratings according to Part-FCL.

You apply to the LBA for the issue of an examiner rating.

An examiner rating is valid for 3 years. The LBA can extend your examiner authorization upon application

  • extend it within the validity period,
  • renew it after the expiry date,
  • add further categories or rights.

You must meet certain requirements in order to be granted an inspector authorization. In particular, you must

  • prove your flying and teaching experience to the LBA,
  • successfully complete a theoretical and practical examiner standardization course,
  • have your competence assessed by a senior examiner (SEN).

Your rights as an examiner are based on 6 examiner categories:

  • Examiners for class ratings - Class Rating Examiners (CRE): CREs examine people who wish to acquire, revalidate or renew a class rating, for example the class rating for multi-engine aircraft.
  • Flight Examiners (FE): FEs conduct examinations within the scope of their respective authorizations in which licenses are acquired for the first time.
  • Examiners for flight instructors - Flight Instructor Examiners (FIE): FIEs carry out competence assessments for persons who wish to acquire, extend, renew or renew a rating as a flight instructor.
  • Instrument Rating Examiners (IRE): IREs conduct examinations for the acquisition, revalidation or renewal of instrument ratings.
  • Type Rating Examiners (TRE): TREs examine persons who wish to acquire, extend or renew a type rating (e.g. A380).
  • Examiners for training on synthetic flight training devices - Synthetic Flight Examiners (SFE): SFEs examine pilots on FSTDs (flight simulation training devices) who wish to acquire, extend or renew a type rating.

The LBA publishes the names, examiner number, the rights arising from the examiner rating and its validity on the Internet. You must notify the LBA online of any changes to your data.
