Felixflyer,
I am training on a full time basis (5 days per week). I did two 1 hour sessions on my CPL but as the IR sessions are 1.5 to 2 hours long one session per day is enough for me.
Flying once a day also means I can ride in the back-seat on other student's flights and learn without the added pressure of flying the aircraft. Another plus is that IR students can use the FNPT 1 free of charge for extra practice.
There are CPL and IR students at PAT on a part time basis but my own point of view is that continuity is key to success, especially on the IR, to prevent skill fade, etc. That said, Linda will be the best person to advise you based on your personal circumstances.
Good luck.
The Cat.
