Hi everyone,
I am about start my instrument rating in 4 weeks and I am looking for advice in whether I should do it in a single or a twin. I have a CPL and looking to go north early next year.
I was told by my old PPL instructor that it would be wise to do the initial rating in a single and then the following year when I do my renewal I should upgrade to a MECIR while doing the renewal. The other option would be to do some in a single and the rest in a twin.( for the initial rating)
I have a casual job in aviation at the moment so I may have the possibility of claiming a tax deduction for the flying. (any aviation savvy tax accounts out there?)
I am looking for the most cost effective solution that will be practical to the type of flying I will hopefully be doing over the next 2/3 years.
Thanks for your help.
