Could any one help me out. I am looking for a complete list approved JAA exercise numbers for both VFR and IFR training.
e.g. Ex.1 - Prefight action, Ex.2....... and so on.:rolleyes:
Thanks:ok:

212man :ok: thanks for the help.
Now if I had to get IFR training are there any standard Exercise Numbers. I will try and have a look at FCL-Part 2.
I guess I would have covered this if I had done more of my Bristol ground school.
Alas I my flight training was finished in the USA :{
thecontroller... :} you're still alive after all these months..
get the results back yet?
When will we see you at the factory to get the LST?

There are no standard exercise numbers for IR training.

There are no standard exercise numbers for IR training.
thanks, how would one then log any IFR training that was done.
Would it be done in the same manner as in the FAA system?
Curtis E Carr
21st Oct 2006, 10:40
Don't know the FAA system.
You would enter your route and what approaches you did. Log total time of the sortie as PUT and time spent as flying by sole reference to instruments, whether actual or simulated, in the IF column.
I do not endorse adverts etc etc
