Lasors in hand, I now have my answers, thankyou.
Ever grateful for the help I feel I must stress that from time to time, pilots may not have information to hand, nor consider it necessary to remember. My forgetting facts from far more important areas of the sylabai ie LAW, NAV and actually FLYING etc, would be far more worrying, and is not something i would readily allow to happen.
The occasional memory lapse regarding x hours required per y to ensure z doesnt happen needn't be met with the hostility that too bloody often rears its head on pprune.
Lazyness aside I was asking for a quick fact that was quite obviously available 'off the top' of many private pilots heads, so thankyou to those that elaborated!
And to those that are thinking of requesting guidance, however momentary, do not do so until you have read and memorised LASORS. You may not ask any questions to which the answers can be found within it. So that means, well, no questions at all then.
Regards.
