cpl/ir

John Dale (ocean sky I guess ?) brill instructor flew with him back in the 90's when he was ATC at manchester, he's a hard task master tho !

cpl is ok but it's the IR that can be twice the work of CPL, when doing your IR you could really do with doing nothing else, would even say don't instruct at the same time.

Only other thing is though your IR will prob be twin to get the unrestricted maybe find yourself a nice pa28 thats full IR and get your ILS approaches so you can do it second nature, know too many people that have lost it on IR approaches, sometimes with silly small errors (expensive ones !).
