I think these days its imperative to look beyond the training and figure out your first job.
Thats why training with a commercial operator carris some weight, although
not all will employ all their new CPLs.
I timed it right with Ardmore and went straight to scenics,banner towing and
photography after my CPL. I didnt need to spend any money hour building for an instructors rating.
If you choose right you can avoid the long wait from getting your license to your first job that many low hour pilots get stuck in.
