This means, for example, on an integrated ATP(A) course, the same person can conduct up to 47.5 hours of the flight training (there is only 40 hrs dual flight training required in the aircraft) and all of the SPIC (20 hours which is not dual flight instruction) as well as both the CPL Skill Test and the IR Skill Test. Well, that should increase the first time pass rate!
Since this is a change from the original NPA, it is subject to further comment so I suggest, if you don't like it, you get on the EASA CRT and say so. Comments must be made by 9 June 2010.
