I have a bit of a delima here and need some guidance from the experts.
Unfortunately, I let my currency lapse due to my thinking I was due for my BFR in May. Turns out it was April. So according to the FAA, I am not legal to fly.
None of the CFI's in my area have any time in an RV. It is my understanding that this would not have been a problem while I was still current to do the BFR in my RV, as I would have been designated as PIC.
Now that I am not current, the CFI would have to assume the role of PIC.
Is it possible for a CFI to do a BFR in an airplane he is not checked out in and be PIC?
My option is to get my BFR in a C150 or C172, but I would like to do it in my RV. Compounding the problem doing it in something other than my RV is that there are no rental airplanes at my airport. My CFI has a 150, but it is out of annual as well, and he is dragging his feet getting that done.
Can you say frustration????
