To be honest, its not a bad idea to have it done before starting the course. Its also not a bad idea to have nearly the 100 hours PIC requirement too.

HB

I was told by a flying school I need 300 hours after my PPL before the CPL is that correct?

I take it you couldn't be bothered to look earlier in this thread?

What is the point of us organising and archiving previous questions and the answers if people don't even make the slightest effort to research the answer to their questions? Laziness is not a good quality in a pilot...

IMO thats a bit harsh Sroggs. You can loads of irrelevent off-topic information back from search engines and its often quicker and more incisive to post a direct question. This is primarily a forum after all not a search engine. Not to mention forum posts may be out of date and/or inaccurate.

LightSpeedS: Have a look at LASORS on the CAA website - its all in there.

Anyone know If you already have a night rating do the hours have to be broken down exactly as below, as a requirement for the CPL?


"5 hours Night Flying comprising of at least 3
hours of dual instruction, including at least 1
hour of cross-country navigation, and 5 solo
take-offs and full-stop landings."
