Is this starting to bite ?
The EASA changes requiring 200 hours IFR to be an IRI cut off most of the new supply after 2012.
Rumours is that one of the big integrated schools in the UK is now telling students the IR could take between 5 and 6 months to complete, rather than the normal 6 to 8 weeks. This implies an average of just over one training session per week, which must make training consistency very poor.
Is this a problem across all schools ?
i thought AOPA were pushing for the return of the 50 hours instrument flight alternative ?
