Which CFR Part pertains to flight simulators?

• A. 14 CFR Part 61
• B. 14 CFR Part 60
• C. 14 CFR Part 91
• D. 14 CFR Part 23

Answer: (B)

Certification of Flight Simulation Training Devices establishes the rules for flight simulators. This part defines what counts as a qualifying training device, how it must be evaluated and approved, and the ongoing requirements to remain in compliance. That focus on qualification and certification of simulators is why it’s the correct choice for flight simulators, as opposed to parts that govern pilot licensing, general operating rules, or the airworthiness standards for actual aircraft.
