K, Keygrip it does make a difference in the exercise's you have to to during the skills test but in the end it doesn't its still the same license with the same privileges. Besides the above if you see any major differences between doing CPL single and then combining the skills test for the IR/multi or do it all multi please let me know. Keep in mind that I already have multi experience as I am doing a conversion from FAA.
PFL are part of the FAA private and Commercial check-ride. I am also an FAA flight instructor and I used to teach them so I don't think they will be a problem for me.
Cheers
