ASEL CPL Addon

Asked by: 4368 views , , , ,
Commercial Pilot

I have a CPL (H) FAA license with Instrument rating and also a Nigerian CPL (A) license.

I would like to do an addon to get a CPL (A) ASEL license.

I know it requires me to do some flight hours in an airplane. Can my foreign hours count towards getting the fixed wing add-on?

    See 61.41. If your foreign instruction was given by an instructor certified by a foreign state which is a member of ICAO and the instruction was given outside the U.S., you can count it.
