However, I guess you could do a lot of sim time and count 50 hours of sim as your total time, again in a 141 ride....
I had 180 TT when I got my commercial single/multi IFR rating at UND.

141 schools have minimum times for certain requirements, such as IR time and PIC time to get your ratings. I'm sure there is a total time number at UND that you couldn't possible get under, but I bet some students there could have gotten all there ratings in 170 TT or maybe even 160 TT.

I'm pretty sure some students were leaving school early this past year when some of the regionals were offering jobs to those with just a commercial rating. However, if the company required them to have a degree, then I guess the only students that would have 180 TT would be the Aviation Management majors since they stop after multi-engine class, where the rest go through CRJ course and would have around 250 TT with the CFI and CFII ratings.

True....I'd be curious to see how low you can get the Commercial at 141 schools. (I went to UND also, slightly less TT than you specified at the completion of my CSMEL/IR)

A person I know graduated the school w/ the Aviation Management course. He got a job at Piedmont last year with 200TT, no joke. Great guy, and by no means a daddy's boy....paid for all his training himself. It is on the very low time side, for sure, though.

141 mins are 190, so you must have forgot to long the other ten.
