76 ビザについて
NAME : 辻 俊哉 2013/04/21 07:37:25

4/6に渡米しFly Coronaに有る学校に通っているものです。
このスクールはFAAの認定校ではないのでF-1ビザが出せないのでスクールと相談した結果少々不安もありながらESTAで入国しました。
入国時に2ヶ月の滞在申告で少し怪訝な顔をされたのと、指紋申請の際にこのビザ見たことないと言われたので少々不安になりながらも中一日、申請した翌々日には練習開始許可mailが来ました。
僕の場合ですが何の問題もなくESTAで練習できています!!

辻さん、こんにちは。
TSA、ESTAの事は経験が無いので、現地の方からの報告は助かります。


渡米して2週間ですか。
もうじき、単独飛行ですかね。飛行機は楽しんで下さいね

完璧にするより楽しむ事を意識した方が上手く行きますよ。
間違えても、完璧な計器表示なんて目指さない事です。
機首(NOSE)と地平線の位置を意識した方が、計器をずっと見るより、計器を守れます。
トリムを多用して、視線の方向を意識して下さい。

後はマニューバーの練習をする時は、事前に手順を完璧に暗記して下さい。
理解するのは地上で行い、上空で確認するって感じで。
上空で理解しようとしても、狭くて、騒音、プレッシャで頭が回りません。

質問された訳じゃ無いですけど、参考にどうぞ。

Good Luck

IS VISA REQUIRED FOR FLIGHT TRAINING? YES, Definitely.

http://www.aopa.org/tsa_rule/

TSA back ground check and finger printing is required if you already do not have pilit's license and if you are going to train for instrument rating, multi-engine training or type rating for over 12,000 pound aircraft.

Visa is required for flight traing in USA by regulation and you can be arrested and I think TSA back ground check asks for photo copy of appropriate visa or visa number.

http://www.aopa.org/tsa_rule/alienft.html

------- Verify that you have an appropriate visa.

The AFSP will deny flight training requests from candidates who are present in the U.S. illegally or who do not have an appropriate visa for flight training (fees paid for denied applications will not be refunded).Moreover, taking flight training without an appropriate visa could be a violation of your immigration status and could result in your arrest and removal from the United States.

M-1 is for short term training, private, commercial.

Not all flight schools have the right to issue I-20 for visa applicant.

So, even if you have managed to start your flight training without visa, you could get arrested or your flight examiner may check your visa.

Some have been arrested at immigration check point for attempting to enter the US without appropriate visa!

Visa topic is so complecated. Rules changes also. Do not trust your flight schools and agents.

Visa needed for flight training?

TSA back ground check is required. This process is done over web workflow using SEVIS. SEVIS is used to keep track of students studying in the USA to make sure that students leave after graduation.

Only part 141 schools can be approved to be on SAVIS systems. Part 61 schools can no longer be on SAVIS school. Part 61 schools and independent flight instructors can only teach those with work visa or students already on F-1 student visa. (for sport pilot, private, commercial, instrument, multi engine. )

http://www.florida-flyers.com/international-students.php
A Student Visa (M1) is required for the following flight training programs:

1. Private Pilot License (PPL) training (full training program)
2. Instrument Rating (full training program)
3. Commercial Pilot License (CPL)(full training program)
4. Multi-Engine Rating (full training program)
5. If you are enrolled in a FAR Part 141 course
6. Simulator training and type ratings


http://www.generalaviationnews.com/2013/01/dhs-ice-and-foreign-student-flight-training/


Some Partt61 schools may claim that if student pilot takes less than 18 hours a week, visa is not necessary. Prospective student still need to use SAVIS portal to do TSA security check. Students are expected to apply for either F-1 or M-1 visa, complete back ground check and submit finger print before starting flight traing.

Some student pilots may claim that their main purpose of the visit to the USA is travelling/ vacation and flight traing is incidental and may be under visa waiver program (ESTA) or B1. Business, or B2 preasure visa. Students are expected to apply to M1 or F-1 visa before enrolling into full time flight training. Some student may claim that those receiving less than 18 hours of traing per week are not eligible for M-1 visa.

Getting a Visa to visit and/or study in the U.S.A.
Our understanding is based on the US Immigration web site.

If your visit is mainly for tourism or business, and you'd like to fly yourself around this beautiful area, or take some flight lessons part time, then you should not need a student visa and you should be able to enter with a tourist or business visa or on the visa waiver program. Canadian citizens can enter without a visa under the bilateral agreement between Canada and the USA.

If you plan to enter the US primarily for flight training, in a full time course of over 18 hrs per week, and you are not a US citizen, you will need a student visa, which we cannot obtain for you. If that is your goal, then you need to search the net for schools that offer the I-20 visa program.

See the US Immigration web site and do check with your nearest US Consulate.

TSA Clarifies Rules on Visa Permitted for Alien Pilots in Training
March 28, 2005 - The Transportation Security Administration this week clarified its position with regard to the status of aliens permitted to receive flight training in the United States.  In response to issues raised by NAFI executive director Rusty Sachs and government relations specialist Doug Macnair during a visit to TSA in January, TSA attorney Monty Thompson provided guidelines to determine the permitted visa status for alien pilots seeking flight training.

On Friday, April 12, 2002, the Department of Justice (DOJ) issued an Interim rule through the Federal Register (Vol. 67, No.71) proposing to amend 8 CFR Parts 214 and 248. This amendment requires a change of status from any non-immigrant visitor visa (B-1 or B-2) to a student visa (F-1 of M-1) prior to pursuing a course of study.

Here is the order of logic on how the INS code relates to the flight-training rule:

NO flight training under Category 1, 2, or 3 (49 CFR 1552.3) should be conducted for ANY alien who has entered the U.S. in B-1 or B-2 (visitor's) status.  It is a violation of the status under which the non-immigrant visitor entered the U.S.

A change of status to M-1 or F-1 is permitted once the candidate has entered the US, only if the candidate applies prior to enrolling in and attending a flight-training course.

Only FAA Certificated Part 141 and/or 142 schools approved and participating in SEVIS program are authorized to issue an I-20 form to a prospective student upon enrollment into a course;  the prospective student must request the change of status and receive the subsequent Student Visa.

FAA Part 61 schools and independent flight instructors MAY train a foreign national, if that alien is (a) a Legal Permanent Resident or in a work status (H-type visa) with extended stay privileges or (b) a refugee in Asylum status with appropriate DHS documentation.

FAA Part 61 schools and independent flight instructors MAY train a foreign national on an F-1 (academic visa) provided that the student is enrolled and attending the college or university as shown on the F-1 and the student has notified SEVIS of the additional training being received at a non-SEVIS approved school.

NOTE:   All prospective foreign national (alien) flight training candidates must register and submit information to the TSA's Alien Flight Student Program (AFSP), regardless of Visa status.

Non-Immigrant Visa

Aliens seeking admission to the US for vocational training (ie training which requires a TSA assessment) must make application to the Department of State for a non-immigrant student visa. The visa process begins once a basis for its issuance is established – viz, the school must be satisfied the candidate has met certain eligibility requirements and the candidate has received a TSA clearance for each training event. Aliens admitted to the US under visitor or visa waiver program[ [6]] status are not permitted to enroll in a course of full-time study. Such an alien must either obtain an M–1 visa[ [7]][ [8]] (established to cater for non-immigrant alien students undertaking vocational or non-academic studies) from a consular officer overseas and seek re-admission to the US, or apply for and obtain an adjustment of status under Sec. 248 of the INA and 8 CFR 248. Adjustment of status is not available to aliens admitted under the visa waiver program.


Student and Exchange Visitor Information System

§641 of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (as amended) - codified at 8 USC 1372 - required the creation of a programme to collect information relating to nonimmigrant alien students and exchange visitor programme participants undertaking a course of study in the US. The programme became known as SEVP (Student and Exchange Visitor Program) and its core technology became known as SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System). Alien students (including citizens of Canada) must submit an application and fee (known as I-901) to SEVIS prior to applying for a visa. The I-901 fee is waived for aliens who are nationals of Canada and Mexico and who commute across the US border to the school; such aliens must nevertheless submit an application to SEVIS.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pilot schools and training centers not FAA certificated under 14 CFR Parts 141 or 142 are ineligible for SEVP certification and consequently may not provide flight training to alien students.3 These regulations are being relaxed to allow for training under Part 61 by schools not in possession of a Part 141 certificate.

NB - 8 CFR 214.3(j): "In any advertisement, catalogue, brochure, pamphlet, literature, or other material hereafter printed or reprinted by or for an approved school, any statement which may appear in such material concerning approval for attendance by nonimmigrant students shall be limited solely to the following: This school is authorized under Federal law to enroll nonimmigrant alien students."
The I-20 M-N, posted from within the US by the school to the student, carries some official numbers needed for the online SEVIS application.
