Pilots
All pilots are encouraged to use their skills as a Civil Air Patrol pilot.
In order to do that, your pilot certificate, current medical, and current flight review must be documented in the Operations Qualifications section of e-Services.
If you have a high performance endorsement or instructor certificate, those should be documented in the system as well.
Documenting these items requires a two-step process:
• Uploading Supporting Documentation
• Submit Qualifications for Approval
Once your qualifications have been submitted and approved and you have completed Education and Training Level 1: Onboarding and Cadet Protection Training, there are two remaining steps to complete in order to exercise your pilot skills within Civil Air Patrol:
For more information on new pilot onboarding, see your unit's Operations Officer.

Pilot Onboarding Program
This is where you will work with one of our instructor pilots to ensure you are ready for taking a check ride.
Pilots without a current high performance endorsement must complete high performance training and receive a logbook endorsement from one of our instructor pilots.
There is also special training for those who need to transition to flying aircraft equipped with Garmin's G1000 system.
Take a Check Ride
Our annual check ride is much like the flight review with which you are familiar, but it also includes information and skill checks that are specific to Civil Air Patrol.
Pilots must receive an initial check ride in each of the types of aircraft they wish to fly. These include Cessna 172 and 182, and the Gippsland Air Van (GA8).
Some Civil Air Patrol aircraft are equipped with Garmin's G1000 system.
Pilots are required to either show they are well experienced with G1000 or work with an instructor pilot in the G1000 transition training.
