Farrell, the 141 CPL is not 125 hrs it's 190.
Sixty hrs difference yes, however the 141 syllabus requires a whole lot more of ground school.
The reduction in flying time has to come form somewhere.
For 141 PPL 35 hrs of groundschool is required. For part 61 as necessary.
If you have a bright student who studies a lot maybe 10 hrs is sufficient.
Can't do it under 141 35 hrs IS REQUIRED
And your chances of a job don't increase either, you now hold 190 hrs vs 250.
Avoid 61 if you intend to be an instructor?
Rubbish.
