If a private pilot had a flight review on September 2 of last year, when is the next flight review required?

For a private pilot, a flight review is required every 24 months. If the pilot completed their flight review on September 2 of last year, the next review would be due two years from that date, considering the entire period of 24 months.

Starting from September 2 of last year, the next flight review would be due on September 2 two years later. However, the options provided require a specific date, which accounts for the fact that the review should not exceed the 24-month period.

Since a flight review does not have to be completed on the exact anniversary date, the last day of the month following the 24-month period offers some flexibility for pilots. Therefore, a flight review needs to be completed by September 30 next year to remain compliant, which aligns with option C. This ensures the pilot stays within the duration required and does not inadvertently lapse due to overlooking the deadline on the exact date.
