Plan to have all that done by 185 hours, then you can do a nice easy 15 hours CPL training in a single.
I might be getting confused somewhere.. I have to pick up Part FCL but I was under the impression that you need Multi Engine as part of your training for commercial airline flying. Havent decided if its airline but will work on that basis for now..
Is this not MEP then? Or is it Multi Engine IR that is required? because everything so far has been single and will be up to CBIR.
