Should I get instructor rating?
Hello everyone.
I want to ask if you think I should get the instructor rating.
I have 530 hours, with over 380 PIC, 40 Multi with almost 30 PIC on Multi (Turbocharged Seneca), nearly 100 hours instrument with 10 in actual and 100 hours in a TAA, CPL with Group 1 IFR and IATRA written.
I got TBNT from basically every place I applied for.
I'm considering getting my instructor rating. I have a lot of experience in instructing from other field (paramedicine instructor, self defense instructor over 10 years and more), but can barely see ads for flight instructors.
I can spend this amount in the US (I have my FAA CMEL and IR as well) and get around 150-200 hours, but I don't know if it'll make a difference.
Should I get it? Is there more jobs in this field than first officers?
