Hey there.
Yes this is for the FAA IR... Requiremenst are 40 hours of instrument trainig ( 20 hours of which will be done in a simulator ) and 50 hours PIC cross country time ( which I will have ). I've heard that it is exhausting because there is a lot of stuff to memorize/practice. However, the ability to be exposed to the material for 10 days continuously apparently is a big plus point since your building on what you have learned everyday!
Not sure
