Turbine Waiver
I am unclear on the flights and type of aircraft used for High performance flight. I know its 50 flight over 150 mph. I have well over 200 flights at 180+ mph with my whiplash. Can this be used as my flights???? Also how long should you be on the buddy cord, If at all? I have 20 years of flying exp. This will be my first turbine which is the EuroSport. Any input would be helpfull

RE: Turbine Waiver
you only need a plane that can fly above 100mph with retracts and preferrably with flaps. A whiplash isnt a good choice.
You just need to show that you are capable of handling a performance plane in different situations. Rolls, loops, downwind approaches, level flight, figure 8's etc.
You can fly with someone on a turbine with a buddy cord to get your waiver but it is not needed if thats not available to you.
You need 2 signatures to get signed off. A current waiver holder and one turbine CD.
here is the documents you need with info on the bottom for signoff.
