I was wondering about the minimum hours required to go from Private Multi-Engine Land to Private Single engine land.

For an FAA applicant.
- 3 hours of cross-country flight training in a single-engine airplane.
- 3 hours of night flight training in a single-engine airplane
- 3 hours of flight training in a single-engine airplane by reference to instruments
- 3 hours of flight training in a single-engine airplane in preparation for the practical test
- 10 hours of solo flight training in a single-engine
Some of these dual hours can be combined but this is straight from §61.109(a)

$\begingroup$ Is 3 hours of cross-country night flight training by reference to instruments in a single engine airplane sufficient? $\endgroup$– SomeoneMar 9 at 3:09

$\begingroup$ @Someone Yes, that should work. Realistically, once you get 3 hours of the required instrument time, you will have more than 3 hours of night and cross country time since taxi, takeoff, and landings are not instrument time so you will end up with about 3.5 of those two if you did 3 hours exact of instrument under those conditions. $\endgroup$ Mar 9 at 4:37
