German term or phrase: Nachprüfflugberechtigung

Context:

ein TypeRating, eine Nachprüfflugberechtigung sowie die Vor-/Nach-flugkontrolle sind vorgesehen.

I expect that Nachprüfflugberechtigung is something like "recertification flying/pilot's license (or licence)", but can't find anything to confirm this.

Der Nachprüfflug wird nach größeren Reparaturen wie z. B. Triebwerkswechsel durchgeführt. Im Schein steht dann "NB" für NachprüfflugBerechtigung.

You may call it whatever you like but it is a test pilot rating. It's the overall rating whereas the other ones may just be additional "specializations" of the test pilot rating.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Many thanks. What would the difference then be between "Nachprüfflugberechtigung" and "Testflugberechtigung", which also crops up in the same document?

Asker: Great, thanks!

Asker: In that case, isn't there any other prefix that can be used to distinguish one from the other e.g. "reverification test pilot rating" or "recertification test pilot rating"?
