Hi I will soon be coming up to the hours required to unfreeze my atpl but had a question about the individual requirements. I have the 500 multi pilot and 500 total pic/picus, the instrument/cross country and night time all already. I have read though that from the 500 pic/picus at least 70 of it needs to be PIC, due to my flightschool doing all hour building as picus I only have 50 something pic and the rest picus, does this mean I will need to go fly some SE as PIC to get the extra 20 or so hours or is it just an error the way I have logged times? Thanks

Not sure how you’d have got the licence with only 50 hours PIC in the first place, you sure? Tests would normally be logged as PIC if passed.

Leaning more towards an error in what you’ve been doing. May want to double check how you’ve recorded the hours, really, really check :ok:
