I hope this is a quick question. I'd like to get my commercial rating,
which requires 100 flights PIC. I bought a DG300 as a student pilot
and was so happy flying it I took 47 flights before getting the
private rating. Do those flights count?
Thanks all,
Brian

FAR 61.51(e)(4) says, "A student pilot may log pilot-in-command time
when the student pilot
(i) Is the sole occupant of the aircraft;
(ii) Has a current solo flight endorsement as required under [FAR] 61.87; and
(iii) Is undergoing training for a pilot certificate or rating.
