Hello everyone, I have searched the web high and low and can't find the answer to my reg question. Hoping you guys can help out!
I am starting a high school class (I am the teacher, will have my 107) in the fall of 2024 in which I will teach the students the skills needed to pass the part 107 exam. A little background of myself, I am a part 61 CFI with a main career as a CTE teacher at a small school. In order to not risk my CFI credentials I want to really make sure I'm understanding and following regs here.
So my question is, can I teach this class with the students falling under the recreational regs 44809 provision? If so, the part that confuses me is the FAA says a high school without a JROTC program doesn't qualify as a higher education institute and must be a "charter of a CBO" to use 44809. So, how the heck does one go about getting chartered by a CBO? I know for a fact many high schools out there are engaging in a similar program; yet I find no where online where this topic has been discussed. Am I interpreting the regs correctly here? Thank you!
