This article indicates that Lidle got his certificate "last off-season" (article is dated 9/8/2006) and logged about 95 solo hours (whether before or after getting the certificate) up to that date.

Thanks Turbo...that helps to clarify. I heard earlier that Lidle had over 700 hours of flight time. Of course, they also stated that he was in the plane alone.
