Hi All, can anyone help with his expertise?
If with 120 hours, and you're applying for the JAA CPL/ME, how can you manager to earn the 30 remaining hours before being able to begin the CPL course? Also, can you do it at the same time with the ME rating?
Anyone know how long is required to finish the CPL/ME in a JAA certified school in the US, like EFT or EASA,
Thanks

Kaptn,

Not sure where yopu got your numbers.

To start a multi engine course you need 70 hours P1.
To start a CPL course you must have 150 hours.

There fore to start a multi engine CPL course you must have both of the above hours requirements.

To actually apply for a CPL, you must have 200 hours total with a minimum 100 hours P1.

In theory it would be possible to get all of the qualifications with less than 200 hours (I had completed CPL with multi and was 28 hours short of the 200 for licence issue), but you can't apply for the licence so put you have to put your hand in your pocket and buy more aircaft time.
