Earning my commercial without owning a complex airplane
Asked by: Bill 2936 views Commercial Pilot
Can a fixed gear airplane be used for obtaining a commercial rating (and for the exam), if the pilot already has a complex endorsement and hits the other wickets? I have my Instrument rating and maybe 300 hours, looking at maybe going for a CFI. Was considering upgrading my plane to a DA40 from the Piper Cherokee... was wondering if I could use it to get my commercial and CFI? Can I just get my complex time separately as an endorsement on a rental? Four place retract gear airplanes seem to offer minimal advantage over fixed these days...
