Instructor hours counting toward CPP
I was talking to someone recently from CommutAir in the training dept. who said hours spent instructing count toward the 1,000 hour PIC / 3,000 hour total service United CPP requirement. Does anyone know how simulator and ground instructors get credit for this at CommutAir? Is it a certain number of hours per day? 1:1 time spent instructing? Some other conversion factor?

It depends on their other qualifications. I know several people in the CPP who still have to finish their degree. If you lived in IAD you could spend a lot of time at home while still earning CPP hours and completing their degree.
