CPL 170A question

[scallaghan]

Hi

Is the CPL 170A classed as a training flight and included as apart of a 28 hour course or is it an additional flight?

I am asking as I recently finished a CPL and am applying for the license, I was advised it can be claimed as "course hours claimed" on the application on the CPL application form. However my understanding is that if you pass a 170A in your log book its logged as P1(s), so I assume you can claim that as P1 on the application form?

Read Lasors 2008 and couldnt find anything apart from hours required for issue of the CPL license.

It counts as part of the course hours so therefore is logged as dual.
The actual test if passed, is P1.

A lot of schools use the 170 form as a basis to provide a mock test, to ensure your ready - but it is still part of the course hours.
