Should I fly or should I just read for the ATPL!
Having been offered the possibility to get around 200 - 300 hours for free this and next summer on single engine, I feel I have a potenial dilemma of choice.
I currently need to finish my ATPL's, and doing the best I can with getting trough that, I have recieved this offer - I only have a total of 160 hours at the moment, enough to start the CPL when the ATPL's are finish. However it is a very tempting offer to go for, to get those hours for free, however it will of course affect my reading time. The flying will be around 5 hours daily, weekends maybe 8 - 9 hours, and only during the summer months.
I want to try to do both, read and fly - not sure how much energy will be left, but do you feel those potenially 200 hours could be important for future work later? And is it worth the delay in maybe finishing the ATPL's?
