Hi C/F how are you mid june there may be a plan afoot (but who knows)
I agree with you i have all the ratings that camp freddie says and just about crawling with work so far paid work from getting all the ratings including twin IR is a total of 7.5 however it is not all doom it is not through the work not being there it is the weather thats screwing things at the mo
Instructor rating is by far the the way in which you will start to pick up work it will come in spits and starts (unless you drop lucky) but it will get the phone ringing.
Basic CPL hardly any chance of getting work
If you can aford it go the whole hog if money is tight please dont take this the wrong way join the military get them to pay for it have a great life and get paid to train then when you have had enough and want to settle down you can leave and your time up you will get a pension.
If i had my time again i would do it this way without a dought also its not a bad way of life so i am told.
Best of Luck dont give up be prepared for some knocks but dont give up.
and finally as one of the other guys says in the thread further up have a back up career.
I fall back on mine when i am not flying and it keeps the woolf from the door.
Good Luck
