As I understand, the total route distance, i.e. the round trip from home to aerodromes 1 and 2 and home again must be 300 nm (or 150 nm for the PPL).
I agree though-Lasors is not totally clear on either requirement hence my original question. From Lasors it seems that the 300 mile flight can be done in the PPL and can count towards the required flight experience for the CPL as well.
I will ask the CAA when they reopen in Jan!
