I would like to get my CPL / FI ratings over the next 5 years or so; perhaps ending up doing odd bits of CPL work and some instructing at the weekends (assuming I am that lucky!). No plans to do an IR within the time frame afforded by an ATPL.
Hi Craig,
It seems to me that you have answered your own question here. As I find myself in a similar set of circumstances with no plan to give up my day job just yet and no real desire to fly in multi-crew IR helicopters (mainly North Sea in the UK I guess), the CPL(H) writtens seemed more appropriate. For what it is worth, I am studying with Dragon Helicopters and after I have taken my first set of five exams in July, I'll let you know how it went... So far, I have discovered that the study material seems up to scratch, they are very quick to mark progress tests and answer queries, and I am crap at home study
Let us know what course of action you decide upon and good luck.
