Does this training program meet the rules?

Copy the hours from a flight school's brochure. We check them against the regulations' minimums, item by item, and turn anything the brochure doesn't show into a question to ask the school. We don't judge the school: we help you ask.

Which rules?

Indonesia (CASR) United States (FAA)

Checked against CASR Part 61 Amdt. 5 and Part 141 Amdt. 4 (DGCA).

The school trains under

Part 141: an approved course Part 61: no approved course

Every Indonesian pilot school is certificated under Part 141, so that is the default. Tick both to compare.

Leave blank what the brochure doesn't say. Night hours are part of the dual or solo hours, not added to them. The check updates as you type.

Questions people ask

Do Indonesian flight schools follow Part 61 or Part 141?

Pilot schools in Indonesia are certificated by the DGCA under CASR Part 141, so the approved-course minimums apply. Part 61 sets what the licence asks outside an approved course; the check shows both.

Why does the check ask questions instead of giving a verdict?

A brochure shows totals; the regulations ask for specific items inside them, such as solo time in the commercial course, night flying and cross-country flights. When a brochure doesn't show an item, it may still be in the syllabus. The right step is to ask the school, with the rule in hand.

Do mutual flights count as solo?

No. A mutual flight has two cadets and no instructor. Only the cadet at the controls logs pilot in command, and a mutual flight doesn't meet the commercial course's solo, or pilot-in-command-with-an-instructor, requirement.

Does simulator time count?

Up to a limit that depends on the course and on how the simulator is qualified: for example, at most 20% of a private pilot course in a qualified flight simulator. Hours beyond that are good training but don't count towards the course.
