Default Calendar Months

Reference this http://forums.jetcareers.com/general...ht-review.html ((Biannual) Flight Review)

I don't understand what "calendar months" means. Does that mean that if you got your private on August 5, 2006 your BFR is due by July 31,2008? What is a calendar month?

No. If you got your private on August 5, 2006, you would be due for a BFR by August 31, 2008.

A full month, like you see on a calendar. August 5 - August 31 isn't a full month, so it's not counted.

So the trick is, if you get a license or a medical, do it at the BEGINNING of the month instead of towards the end, it lasts longer!

I like the "whole month" concept. Forget the weeks; forget the days; forget the numbers. Just look at the month.

In your example, change it to "if you got your private in August 2006 your BFR is due in August 2008." The exact date within the month doesn't matter.

(Let's not get into whether a FR is ever "due")
