Did you do the helicopter long CC yet? Do the same thing over again (except in an airplane!) but increase the total distance to 250 nm. Look at 61.65(d). It's pretty self explanitory. In ONE flight you have to: under IFR (to me means
under the hood) cover a distance of 250nm along airways or ATC routing, perform an instrument approach at each airport and perform 3 different approaches. To me this means: file a plan from home airport, perform an approach, repeat using a different approach. Fly home and perform a different
approach. If it was a 2.2 hour flight, log 2.0 simulated due to take off and taxi. Done. Did you do this? Can't tell by looking at your IACRA.
As an aside, I see you already have a fair amount of night time, which is good.
You have more than I do and I have around 2400 hours. Get at least a 100 and you'll be set up for EMS later. Nobody told me and I didn't think about it!
