Hi Ack2Main, not quite sure what your point is here! If the military pilot does not take the job, a self improver will - with a corresponding drop in overall experience. I do not understand the relevance of the IR as it is probably easier for an ex military pilot to get one than the said self improver due to the fact that the military do a lot of instrument flying as an integral part of their job. As an employer, if I were paying for the IR course, I would take the military pilot every time.
Why are military pilots having difficulty getting a licence because quote “their all going fixed”?????
I guess that you are a brand new military lynx pilot who aspires to a civilian flying career (AAC, judging by your spelling). May I suggest a little more time in the seat before any more posts and that you invest in a good spoll chicker.
