Your student comes to you and asks if you could help him scout out an area for
a middle-school science project. Your student has a child in middle-school and
the class is doing some studies on the environment surrounding the
community. They would like to get some photographs of a series of fields about
20 minutes flying time from the airport. Because the intended area is fairly close
to another airport with a grass runway, you decide this would be a good
opportunity to practice ground reference maneuvers and maximum
performance and soft-field takeoff and landings. Your student’s child will be
riding along in the back seat to take the photographs. The child had never
flown before.

Can a flight instructor that has never flown with an applicant (applicant for a practical test) give him/her the endorsement below? This is known as the 61.39 endorsement that is required for a practical test. - I certify that [First name, MI, Last name] has received and logged training time within 2 calendar-months preceding the month of application in preparation for the practical test and [he or she] is prepared for the required practical test for the issuance of [applicable] certificate.
