The examiner is expected to use good judgment in the performance of simulated emergency procedures. The use of the safest means for simulation is expected. Consideration must always be given to local conditions (both meteorological and topographical), the examiner's level of performance at the time of the test, as well as the applicant's, ATC workload, and the relative condition of the aircraft used. If the procedure being evaluated would put the maneuver in jeopardy of safe operation, it is expected that the applicant shall simulate that portion of the maneuver, i.e. - engine governor, trim system malfunction, etc., unless otherwise indicated by the NOTE in a particular AREA OF OPERATION or TASK.
PRIVATE PILOT ROTORCRAFT PRACTICAL TEST PREREQUISITES
An applicant for the private pilot rotorcraft practical test is required by Federal Aviation Regulations to:
1.  
pass the appropriate private pilot knowledge test since the beginning of the 24th month before the month in which the practical test is taken;

2.  
obtain the applicable instruction and aeronautical experience prescribed for the private pilot certificate or training sought;

3.  
hold at least a current third-class medical certificate issued under FAR Part 67;

4.  
be at least 17 years of age, and;

5.  
obtain a written statement from an appropriately certificated flight instructor certifying that the applicant has been given flight instruction in preparation for the practical test within 60 days preceding the date of application. The statement shall also state that the instructor finds the applicant competent to pass the practical test and that the applicant has satisfactory knowledge of the subject area(s) in which a deficiency was indicated by the airman knowledge test report.

AC 61-65, Certification: Pilots and Flight Instructors, states that the instructor may sign the instructor’s recommendation on the reverse side of FAA Form 8710-1, Airman Certificate and/or Rating Application, in lieu of the previous statement, provided all appropriate FAR Part 61 requirements are substantiated by reliable records.
AIRCRAFT AND EQUIPMENT REQUIRED FOR THE PRACTICAL TEST
The private pilot applicant is required by FAR Section 61.45 to provide an airworthy, certificated aircraft for use during the practical test. This section further requires that the aircraft:
1.  
have fully functioning dual controls, except as provided in this FAR Section; and

2.  
be capable of performing ALL appropriate TASKS for the private pilot certificate and have no operating limitations that prohibit the performance of those TASKS.

METRIC CONVERSION INITIATIVE
To assist the pilots in understanding and using the metric measurement system, the practical test standards refer to the metric equivalent of various altitudes throughout. The inclusion of meters is intended to familiarize pilots with its use. The metric altimeter is arranged in 10 meter increments; therefore, when converting from feet to meters, the exact conversion, being too exact for practical purposes, is rounded to the nearest 10 meter increment or even altitude as necessary.
POSITIVE EXCHANGE OF FLIGHT CONTROLS
During the practical test, there must always be a clear understanding of who has control of the aircraft. Prior to the flight, a briefing should be conducted that includes the procedure for the exchange of flight controls. A positive three-step process in the exchange of flight controls between pilots is a proven procedure and one that is recommended.
When the examiner wishes to take the controls to allow the applicant to adjust the seat, headset, etc., he/she will say “I have the controls.” The applicant will acknowledge immediately by saying, “ You have the controls.” The examiner again says, “I have the controls.” When control is returned to the applicant, follow the same procedure. A visual check is recommended to verify that the exchange has occurred. There should never be any doubt as to who is flying the aircraft.
