Fellow Pilots.

I am delighted to announce that the following ratings will be available to all those that have taken the 707 Checkride here at AFVA.

The ratings are the MB.220, D.338 and the Br.763, for which flights are already in the schedules.

Requirements are as follows.

Create a Help Desk Ticket requesting them.
You have taken the 707 Check Ride.

Pilots who have gained the Historical Ratings as additional ratings via other programs BEFORE the historical Program became Live will NOT be entitled to the ratings, same goes for those who have transferred over from DVA with the exception of those who took the DVA DC-6 Checkride, as you would have shown knowledge of flying the older birds. If you are going via this route please link a copy of your old DVA logbook for me to view, this will reduce the time it takes to gain the ratings and helps reduce my already full work load. Your Logbook can still be found at the DVA Website and you can view it without the need to be active. The reasons for this is we wish all pilots to gain the ratings by taking the 707 CR, this will enhance your knowledge for the older stuff.

Thank You

Roger Taylor
