Commercial Training Complex – Dual?

Asked by: 756 views , ,
Commercial Pilot, FAA Regulations

I’m curious to know if the 10 hours of complex time for the commercial SEL needs to be done with an instructor, or if it is possible to complete the hours solo after receiving the complex endorsement. The language in CFR 61.123 (below) has me a bit confused on whether “10 hours of training” must be dual.

 

Thanks

(ii) 10 hours of training in an airplane that has a retractable landing gear, flaps, and a controllable pitch propeller, or is turbine-powered, or for an applicant seeking a single-engine seaplane rating, 10 hours of training in a seaplane that has flaps and a controllable pitch propeller;

    Training=with a CFI. So you need at least 10 hours dual.
