9.5 on fixed wing and 8.2 on rotary - but that was military - and a long time ago! I tend to agree with those who have been saying - it doesn't matter. Also the vast number of hours that some people have in their log books doesn't really matter either. It is currency (or recency) that matters. I would rather fly with someone who has flown recently rather than someone who has a dusty old log book tucked away. We had a rule in my unit that if you hadn't flown for 31 days you flew with a QHI (Qualified Helicopter Instructor) before you went back on the line.
