£50 a minute eh? Hmmmmmmm
Sure - why not wait for the windiest roughest day of the year and take your IRT then - that will surely allow you to demonstrate your above average skills. Why not fly the whole route at Vne thus proving how far ahead of the aircraft you are?
15 odd hours plus test hire at a £50 premium sounds like a good way to blow a grand for an ego boost. There are cheaper and easier ways my friend
Personally I think a nice slow simple Beech Duchess is about the best platform to tackle an IR on. Dead boring, dead simple, dead slow. Dead easy to fly - allowing you to cope under pressure.
Cheers
