Its all fair and well saying do an IMC or some course or other for hour building but that is totally useless to you. You need 100 hours
P1. I think a lot of people forget that. Ive had people ask me before, and me explain it to them, after which I watch thier faces drop!
These courses are not going to let you log it as that. To be honest Ive found the hour buliding to be the biggest pain and expense of all! More so than my ATPL's!! Id rather sit a few more exams than get ripped off by some flying club to burn holes in the sky, because in effect that is what you are doing! As mentoned above do set yourself little targets headings, heights, speeds etc and make sure the flying is as smooth as possible. But most of all just make sure your in current practice. Was noticed immediatly on my CPL that I was current and up to speed.
