Licenced public service personnel who holds on appropriate type rating and valid medical certificate authorized to perform a safe, orderly and expeditious control service to facilitate the pilot accomplishing a flight.(8) Flight timea) Aeroplane: The total time from the moment an aircraft first moves under its own power for the purpose of flight until the moment it comes to rest at the end of the flight.b) Helicopter: The total time from the moment the rotary wings start rotating until the moment the rotary wings stop rotating.c) Free balloon / Airship: The total time from the moment it leaves the ground for the purpose of flight until it lands after the flight.d) Glider: The total time from the moment it starts moving, regardless whether being towed, for the purpose of flight, until the moment it comes to rest at the end of flight.(9) Instrument flight time. Time during which a pilot is piloting an aircraft solely by instruments and without external reference points.(10) Cross-country flight. The distance from a point where an aircraft takes off to a point where it lands is no less than 30 kilometers.(11) Flight simulation training device. Refers to full flight simulator, flight training devices and personal computer-based aviation training devices.(12) Flight instructor. A licensed pilot, qualified to act as a flight instructor and perform instruction duties in a CAA approved civil aviation training institution.(13) Instructor pilot. A pilot conducts flight instruction in an organization other than institutes referred to by the above (12).(14) Airship. power-driven, lighter-than-air aircraft.(15) Free balloon. Refers to non-power-driven lighter-than-air manned-aircraft (including gas Free balloon and hot-air Free balloon).(16) Glider. An aircraft which is not power-driven, heavier-than-air, derives its lift in flight from aerodynamic reaction on surfaces that remain fixed under given conditions of flight.
