Which organization maintains the primary records for flight time, training, and qualification status?

• A. CAP records.
• B. FAA records.
• C. Airline HR files.
• D. Local club notebook.

Answer: (A)

CAP maintains the primary records for flight time, training, and qualification status because it administers the training program and tracks member progress across squadrons, missions, and time frames. These official records provide a single, authoritative source of truth for promotions, mission eligibility, and annual checks within CAP. The FAA holds airman certificates and medicals, but CAP’s own records document hours and CAP-specific qualifications. Informal sources like airline HR files or a local club notebook aren’t authoritative for CAP activities.
