Redbar,
Sorry, you are wrong. According to page 63 of the document you reference:
Appendix 1 to JAR-FCL 1.160 & 1.165(a)(4)
2 (a) Before commencing a CPL(A) modular course an applicant shall be the holder of a PPL(A).....
(b) Before commencing the flight training an applicant shall:
(i) have completed 150 hours flight time as a pilot
(The use of
bold is my own, and not from the original document.)
Just as a general rule, if you're going to point us to a 200+ page document, a page reference would be nice
It took me 15 minutes to find this line, and that was when I knew exactly what I was looking for!!!
I suggest buying a copy of LASORS for £10, which, although not authoritative, gives all the information you need in a much more concise form. It's also available on-line now I believe - I'm sure someone who has the link handy will be happy to post it.
