Hopefully the question was one of a general knowledge nature as anyone flying 3 hours a year cannot be considered competant

The min is actually 5h and not 3h. The question was from a non-pilot.

I am now wondering after seeing a thread on avcom that the average flying time per year is 35h. What do you think will be the average time per year for microlight pilots?
