What is the point in using an Aztec for time building? A duchess or seminole is much cheaper to operate.
 
What moron needs 50 hours of dual to get his MER or his MEI?

if your doing your Multi-engine comemrcial or ppl as ani ntial and not add on , then 50 hours would be about right or even more.

Insurance companies are big abuot requireing an instructor to fly with you if your lowtime or have no time in type in a twin or highperformance aircraft, they will require an intructor to tag along for how many hours they deam fit.

Actually, they don't really sell the same..... They sell you 50 hours of "sole manipulator" and 50 of safety pilot. I hear many airlines don't count safety pilot time to your total time, so what you end up with is only 50 hours

This comment about airlines looking down on safety pilot time is crap, I know at least 10 people who went to Scari-Ben Aviator at KFPR, got their milti-time and got hired at a bunch of different regionals. It is flight time and i dont know of any place that says it wouldn't count.

An instructor flying along just because the insurance company requires it does not = to Dual given under FAA regs.

As for ariben - i didn't say all airlines didn't count safety pilot. As for where i got that info - right here on flightinfo. Do a search on it if you are interested.
