Does night time from my private pilot training count toward my commercial pilot rating?
Asked by: Zorg Landers 8910 views Commercial Pilot, FAA Regulations, Helicopter
I am getting close to getting my commercial pilot license for helicopters. I have a question about some of the requirements for night time. 61.129 (c)(3)(ii) states that I need 5 hours of night VFR with 10 takeoffs and landings. During my flight training for my private pilots license I had to have 3 hours of night VFR. Does this time count towards my commercial requirements?
Part 61.129 (c)(3) states that I need 20 hours of flight training in the areas listed in 61.127(b)(3) including... Which makes me think that I need to get 5 more hours for my commercial rating.
