As of now myself, and I'm sure other greenhorns getting through their respective programs, have a portion of their AMEL split between dual received and PIC, let's say 10 dual received, and 15 PIC thereafter.

When completing IACRA, the section only asks for AMEL PIC, and not total thus preventing you from moving forward and submitting. There's a warning that states "Must have at least 50 hours in combined AMEL class hours and FFS class hours". 61.159 doesn't specify PIC, only total AMEL, resulting in a disconnect in the IACRA validation process. The obvious answer is to input it all as AMEL PIC and carry on, but curious what others have done when facing this? Maybe I missed something.

I plan to ask the training department this question, but figured I'd post it up here being that it's the weekend and see what the general response is, and to hopefully help out others when they get to this point.
Thanks!
