Ok I have about 100 hours TT with my private and instrument. My question is what would be the most cost effective way to get my single engine commercial. I have done all training part 61 so far. Part 61 requries 250TT to be eligible for commercial certificate with a minimum of 20 hours of dual as i understand it. Part 141 requries 190TT with ? minimum hours of dual.

Obviosuly building to 190 sounds better than 250 for cost. But it depends on how much minimum dual is needed for part 141 and I am having difficulty interperrting Appendix D to part 141. Specifically the difference between the 120 hour requirment in section 4(a)1 and the 55 hour requirment in 4(b)1

Whats the difference between "flight training" in 4(a) and "flight training from a certificated flight instructor" in 4(b)1

So again, the basic question is what is the minimum amount of dual i need in a part 141 school for my commercial certificate.

Hope the question makes sense :0)

Thanks
