Advice needed: initial CPL/IF Test
I have just finished my IFR training in Cape Town and am now going on preparing the CPL practical test examination with the DE.
At present I am inclined of doing both the IF and the CPL together on the same date as I think many of the stuff tested would overlap (why be tested on steep turns twice - if I can fly them IF then I can also fly them visually... etc and also the whole preflight and postflight briefing will be one instead of two...). And it might even save a bit of time and money.
Is this a good idea ? Any pros and cons from your experience to help me make a final decision ?
