CAPT LOOP - Certainly the feeling from my flying club where I instruct and from other clubs in the South of England is that their ISNT a shortage of instructors and having a CPL would be preffered over a PPL in terms of knowledge and experience.
Thing is there are more PPL's out there that have a damn more lot experience than many many CPL's or ATPL's. Having a CPL does not mean that a CPL would be prefered over a PPL at all.
IF you have the knowledge and plenty flying experience then GO for it, I say
