I enjoy instructing too, i have only been at it for a few months bur it is great, and you cant help but accumulate hours, I have to change my CV every month to add another 50 hours.
But why do a IR????
An IMC is sufficient, and if you will instruct for a year, how much interest will that IR money make in a bank, or more realisticaly how much less will your loan be!!!
and when it come to an IR you will be a better handler and will therefore do it in less time.
I did an IR then FIC but regret it.
its just a thought.
