Question

Maybe this is a bit off topic, esp since the question here is whether to go SECPL or MECPL, I do have a similar circumstance in SEP to MEP transition. The difference being whether it should be SE-IFR or ME-IFR...
Well, words from the wise that you're better off doing your IF on the SE including approach and let down procedures, and then maybe the last 5 hours on the ME followed by the IF test. Ofcourse the prime considertaion is the cost saving, but heard lots that doing A-Z on the ME, is more an hour building tactic of instructors and FTO's alike! That might be true, but is not of great relevance to me. The only concern is how difficult is it transitioning on to the ME, after doing all or well...a couple hrs or more short of all...training on the SE
Is it advisable to, in the above case, limit to about half the training on the SE, and complete the rest on the ME?...maybe that also allows to realise, once you've gotten on the ME, that you've got handling/IF procedural gaps that might be ironed out by hopping back onto the Singles for a few sortie's...?
Does it really help..
