I'm not quite sure what stage you are at but am assuming that you have your PPL, night rating, ATPL theory and 150 hours (100 P1) i.e. you are ready to start the CPL course.

I have done all my training so far on a part time basis. I started the CPL(A) course and trained at weekends and holidays and found that it worked well for me. There is a possible advantage in having more time between flights as it gives you a chance to think things through more and to learn your checklist. I even went as far as buying photographic VFR scenery for FS2002 for practising the nav. I used FS2002 for practising the diversion, which you will do with the screens up.

Well, as I said, it worked for me and I passed the skills test last month!
