Given the confusion on this I e mailed the CAA asking for clarification of exactly how the 3 hours of dual instruction specified at FCL.745.A (a) (3) is to be measured. This is the response from the CAA licensing support technical team.
"Refer to AMC1 FCL.050 Recording of flight time
(g) Flight time is recorded:
(1) for aeroplanes, touring motor gliders and powered-lift aircraft, from the moment an aircraft first moves to taking off until the moment it finally comes to rest at the end of the flight
Note: 3 hours is a minimum not a target"
So there it is unless the CAA change their minds in the next 4 days.
