Another question:

I did my PPL in a 141 school, am looking into doing my instrument rating at a part 61 school, then going back to 141 for my CPL. However, my 141 school just told me when I return I would have to do my CPL under part 61.

Does that make any sense? I don't see why I would have to do Instrument part 141 to do CPL part 141.
