Frequently I've heard that a LOFT is "non-jeopardy." It's not.
I've represented people in termination proceedings who got there based on their LOFT ride and other "non-jeopardy" events.
There's no such thing as a "non-jeopardy" event.
No, he means a LOE (Line Oriented Evaluation). It's a similar type of session to LOFT but like has been said, it's the main jeopardy event in the AQP process. It's the session that results in the issuance or notice of disapproval of a type rating / ATP (if required). It has to be conducted by a check airman (APD in the case of type rating / ATP issuance). LOFT can be conducted by an appropriately qualified instructor.
