The reexamination will cover the rating(s) that the airman received from Bryan Tobias. Airmen holding both A&P ratings will be reexamined for competency of both ratings at the same time. The reexamination will consist of two tests: one knowledge test, and one oral test. The knowledge test will be computer-based and administered using the FAA Airman Knowledge Testing Program. The oral test will be given after successful completion of the knowledge test. An airman may voluntarily surrender one rating for cancellation and show competence for another; however, an airman may not request reexamination of both ratings at different times. Additional information pertaining to the reexamination of mechanics who received certificates from Bryan Tobias is available in FAA Notice 8900.86 (PDF)
