I only meant that if you use the hours towards the requirements of the IR then the time would also count towards the requirements of the Commercial and ATP rating as well. I undertand that airplanes must be used for XC
's. I only implied that during your PPL you could also knock out some prerequisites of the CPL as well if done appropriately. Flight experience is not rating specific. I don't think that explains my point to well but maybe it does.
