Which item is NOT part of First Officer currency requirements?

• A. 3 Takeoffs and landings, CQ-A and CQ-B within 24 months, MV within 12 months, LOE every 12 months, QC line check
• B. CQ-A and CQ-C within 24 months
• C. MV within 12 months
• D. LOE every 12 months

Answer: (B)

Maintaining First Officer currency means staying current on the essential flight tasks and evaluations within specified timeframes so you can fly as an FO on revenue flights. The required items typically include three takeoffs and landings, and CQ-A and CQ-B within 24 months, MV within 12 months, LOE every 12 months, and a QC line check. CQ-C within 24 months is not part of that currency set, so it’s not required to stay current as an FO. In other words, CQ-C is applicable to other qualifications or upgrade paths, but it isn’t a currency requirement for a First Officer.
