Do hours aquired in a glider add to hours in such of a GA license?

Question

PPL etc

Answer 1

Yep. Xcountry hours will apply toward an airplane or helicopter category rating. If you have a private pilot certificate with  a glider rating, you only need to add and airplane rating for instance. Not the same as the other answers suggested. Never believe anything you read on yahoo answers. Even, and I can't believe I'm saying this, if I said it.

Answer 2

No they are completly seperate

Answer 3

In the US the hours acquired in a glider do count.  Where the regulation says "40 hours of flight time" it doesn't exclude glider flight time.

Answer 4

No there seperate
