Just curious.... How many hours did you complete your Commercial
rating in?


I took 12.2 hours of dual instruction in a 172RG. (Lazy 8s gave me
particular tought time.) Then a little over an hour for the checkride.
I had a total of 261 hours after finishing the checkride.

(On a different subject, if someone - particularly among those who
noted the lack of line wrapping in my posts before - could let me know
how this post looks, I'd appreciate it! My test posts to alt.test look
fine to me. I want to make sure they look okay to everyone else as
well.)

I recently started, and my instructor has said (somewhat depressingly) that
lazt 8's take a *lot* of practice. Our DE likes to see good aircraft
control, too. Did you practice them solo?

Anyway I need 10 hours in the Cardinal to get club signoff.

My log shows one solo practice flight about three-quarters of the way
through the training.
