121.427 Dispatcher Recurrent Training

[Douglas Man]

For dispatcher recurrent training in 121.427(c)(4), are the required programmed hours of instruction cumulative for each category of aircraft. In other words, if an airline operates Group I Recip, Group I Turboprop, and Group II aircraft, would the dispatchers require 38 hours a year of programmed recurrent instruction or could the airline use the highest number for all catetories of aircraft, in this case 20 hours?
