Can you pass a medical? If so, then all the training can be done on a student pilot's license in any aircraft you choose, including the 415D. Not sure about the check ride, though.
As far as the hours go, as Hartmut said, they really aren't too valuable, but, if you still have your log book from back then, that's all you need. Otherwise I think they are likely forever lost.

I need some advice on training. I have given myself a month to come back to the US to get my sport pilot certificate. I was going to use an Ercoupe for the training, since my dad has one. However, it was upgraded from a C to D. There are 3 Ercoupe's in southern Nevada and only one is a C model. The guy who has it does not want to let it out for training. I can still use my dads for training, but this leaves one to actually solo in. The instructor out there is being strange as he wants my dad to let him use his to train other students as well. My dad was being nice to let me use his. SP has not taken off out there from my research, mainly because people do not want to buy new planes. So I sit with flight tickets to Nevada.,a month free for training and nothing to train in. I can fly my Dads coupe as he has been flying for over 50 years, he is 89 and still passing medicals, but no way to log hours or find an instructor that is willing to teach without strings. Any suggestions would be appreciated. My second question, is that 30 years ago I took flying lessons in Iowa. I had 12 hours and ready to solo a piper 140. Due to family matter and work I had to leave and then never got back. I recently Called the Piper Dealership that had the school to see if they still had the records. They said the school was sold and then it went belly up so where all those records are is unknown. I have been told there is a way to get those hours back so they can be again used in my log book. Does anyone know how this could be done? Thank you L. Bear <http://www.incredimail.com/index.asp?id=99000> FREE Emoticons for your email - by IncrediMail! Click Here!
