Flyerspotter,

There is some confusion here in terms of the program duration. On its website under the introduction it says,"Cadet Pilot Second Officer trainees will undertake a rigorous 55-week training programme." but when you scroll it down and flip to the Program and Requirement section, it says" Cadet Pilot Programme – a 61-week programme for applicants with low experience and no ICAO CPL". So is it a 55 or 61 week program?? Not so sure. Let's say if they really have cut the program short, I don't think it would be detrimental to your flying hours neither. They might just speed up the training trying to feed you everything in 55 weeks. Just a piece of my mind. Anywayz, to your question, the easiest answer would be 200 hours according to their website. "Training includes 160 hours of flying by day and night, in a variety of single and twin-engine light aircraft, and 40 hours in simulators"

Icemath,

You should draw a line between COMPASS and HR interview. Everything below this line and above the word "stage 2" would be under the category of Initial B. keep in mind that you won't be able to do the B unless you pass the A.
