For PPL holders wishing to become a FI there is a requirement for:
e) have completed a VFR cross-country flight as PIC, including a flight of at least 540 km (300 NM) in the course of which full stop landings at 2 different aerodromes shall be made
Does this really mean VFR? So a flight parts of which were IFR OCAS due to poor weather doesn't count?
