there is no such 5 hrs day/night requirement.
for me all you need is
*mininmum 3 hrs skill test that includes- day check, night check and IR check
*minimum 10 hrs of training on the same type of a/c. (this includes your tests)
for recency the 3 hrs for skill tests is all thats required.

Babyblade: Verification of FAA License can be acquired from FAA website under Airmen certification - Verification of Airmen Certificate.Shoot them an email with required information and they will Fax/email you the copy of it.
For verification of Flying Institute contact your CFI and they will email you a copy of Air Agency Certificate issued to them by FAA.
As for the medical I have no Idea as I didn't submit that, But you can contact FAA and they will be able to help you with that.

Which form do I use for the Skill Test by Day/Night for the multi? Can someone confirm that it is the CA-40B(non-jet aeroplanes above 1500kg) ?
Also, my IR check duration on the multi is 0.8(48min) with 2 approaches as reqd by DGCA. That shouldn't be an issue and meets the minimums(which is 45min), correct?
Thanks in Advance.

your day/night checks can be done on CA-40 but i don't think there should be a problem if you have it on the letterhead of your school.
i quite clearly remember d.c. Sharma saying that IR check should be of 1 hrs atleast, don't panic i am quite sure these chaps don't remember their own words.

About logbook entries
Hi friends, I have the following questions regarding logging of flight time in Indian logbook format. I tried searching for answers on this forum but was unable to come across anything.
For Commercial requirements (on Single engine A/C):
1) Should I log GFTs as Dual or PIC?
2) Should I log cross-country checks as PIC or Dual?
3) If I can log the above two as PIC in a Single Engine aircraft, can I write them as solo (column no 2 & 4) in Form CA39?
4) I have done majority of my instrument time during the cross country checks (towards the 5hrs Instrument requirement). Do you think there should be a problem?
5) If a cross country consist of three legs with one leg shorter than 100NM (eg. 113-45-127NM). Can I log the whole flight time as cross country time?
For Multi Endorsement requirements:
1) Should I log GFTs as PIC or p1(U/S)? And can those hours be counted towards the 15hours recency requirement of DGCA?
2) Should I log the IR Check on Multi as PIC or Dual(U/T)?
3) Has anybody here been able to convert their license with less than 1hr of GFT or IR?
If you know the answers to my questions I will really appreciate your help in this matter. Thank you for your time.

Thanks a lot for your quick reply, flylikeaBE76. That clears many worries and doubts.
I tried calling DGCA today before asking here, but was just redirected from one official to another.

RECENCY india
hi guys
i had got my cpl ME -IR due to immense difficulty ! now in sept my ir on multi is lapsing . basically i have been left with the daunting task of maintaining currency on my licence.
if anyone could suggest
1. how to go bout it ?
2. since my ir is still valid how many hours must i do to keep my ir current.
(since everything else is valid on my licence
cpl ,single &multi engine endorsement till late 2015 .
3. now what if i do my ir recency on a single engine ? how will that come out in terms of jobs eligibility ? since i hav heard and seen tht airlines want licences to be valid at the time of joining ?
and indigo wants ME- IR to be valid at time of evn appearing for exams?
is this true ?
4. the only plus point i thnk for doing my IR recency on multi is that it will help only if a get a job on pa 34 in the future ?
5. does any one any good , straight forward school who would do multi recency asap ?
thnks

Hi all
Quick question. According to DGCA flowchart it says within 6 months I need a 250nm day xc and a 120 nm night xc check.In note 2 it says for multi I just need the GFT + IR checks within 6 months. Now the question is can I do these 250 + 120nm xc checks on single eng or must I do this on a multi if I want the ME endorsement on my license ?
Also I have been flying with my students as CFI numerous cross countries ... I assume I cant count these towards my recency checks. Apart from the 15 hours pic of course.
