Hello,

I got my airplane Flight Instructor rating 2.5 years ago. I didn't use it at all. So it is now expired. I still have my Commercial and my Class 3 medical. Does this help me in any way when it comes to practicing as an Ultralight Instructor? Do I have to go through a test in order to do ultralight flight instruction? (I don't have any ultralight time so even if I am legally ok to jump straight in I'll definitely first go get some ultralight training myself... but I'm asking more on the paperwork side of things)

Thanks

You need some basic instructor training. But if you have an instructor rating: The Knowledge and Skill requirements shall be deemed to have been met if the applicant holds, or has held within the preceding two years, a Flight Instructor Rating - Aeroplane or Helicopter.

Thank you for digging out that regulation.
