IR Instructors
There is no such thing in the UK as an IR Instructor. No course nor no rating. The Applied Instruments Restriction initialy entered into the Instructor Page has to be removed following an FIC Applied Instruments Course and a succesful test with an FI Examiner. Same to teach the IMC or IR.
An Instructor when teaching on a IR course needs to hold an IR and be entered into the FTO Approval following Standardisation training. I could be out of date, correct me if I'm wrong (silly to think someone wouldn't!).
