FLYING EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS
1.6.1. The minimum flying experience required for the issue of a Hong Kong
CPL(A) is 250 hours. This may be reduced to 200 hours where the applicant
has completed an integrated course of flight and ground training approved by
the Hong Kong CAD. These minimum hour requirements are to include the
following flying hours obtained in aeroplanes:-
(a) 100 hours as PIC or PIC U/S, of which, 70 hours must be as PIC. In
the case of a Hong Kong CAD approved CPL/IR training, such hours
can be reduced to 90 hours as PIC of which 20 hours can be SPIC;
(b) 35 hours cross-country flying as PIC, PIC U/S or SPIC of which 30
hours must be PIC. This cross-country flying should include a flight
as PIC on a route of 300 nm completed in a single day, in the course of
which the aeroplane landed and came to rest at not less than two
intermediate and different aerodromes;
(c) 10 hours night flying as PIC, PIC U/S, SPIC or P U/T, of which five
hours must be as PIC. This night flying must include 10 take-offs and
10 landings without assistance, and two cross-country flights as PIC or
PIC U/S or SPIC terminating at an aerodrome a minimum distance of
65 nm from the point of departure. It must also include three hours
night dual of which one hour must be navigation training; and
(d) 10 hours instrument flying as P U/T in aeroplanes.
1.6.2. The remainder may comprise flight time as either PIC, PIC U/S, SPIC or P U/T
counted in full, or P2 counted at half rate.
1.6.3. SPIC (Student Pilot-in-command) refers to the flight time obtained in a Hong
Kong CAD approved CPL/IR training during which the flight instructor on
board the aircraft will only observe the student acting as pilot-in-command
and must not influence or control the flight of the aircraft.
