Others might also suggest that, if you're an airline/air taxi hopeful rather than a career instructor, the Multi-FI is a very good way of building multi-engine hours relatively cheaply. Compare the cost of the course with the cost of paying for, say, 100 hours multi-engine private hire, and it's a no-brainer. Most air-taxi companies ask for 250 hrs multi as a pre-requisite these days.

It goes without saying, however, that since the cost to the punter is that much more than in a single, it is more important than ever that you commit to the standard of instructing you give and don't just treat it as a low-cost way further up the ladder.
