Any CFI[I]s want to chime in?Can you log IFR training while on your VFR solo cross countries and have it count toward your IFR rating? I have heard that you can count up to 17 hours this way. 20 - 3 solo cross country hours.
Thanks

And we wonder where the "... no old bold pilots" expression comes from. At least he asked.]
