Didn't explain myself properly as usual.
I am about to take the multi engine IR test on an MCT sortie. That isn't the problem. The problem is getting the ELCAS system to pay for the IRE (£650 ish).
I realise that I could use my resettlement stuff if push comes to shove but I'm not due for the "resettlement brief" for another month and am just trying to get the ATPL IR test sorted in the meantime.
