I am not looking to become a cowboy Pilot. It is simply a matter that I will not be able to afford an IR for many many years, so rather than not flying commercially at all, for a long time I was simply asking wether it is still possible to find work that doesn't require an IR such as Crops spraying or work in the Delta.

I would like to think that I do not have the same attitude as a 17 year old wannabe with no licence and no staying power in aviation who wants it all now. I have spent years doing really mundane jobs such as factory work just to save scrape my hours together and I am looking for anyway to start in aviation as time is dragging on. The IR can wait 4 years if it isn't definately needed. Anyway, my old instructors didn't have IRs and I thought they were professional. Mind you I had nothing to compare them against

I do appreciate you all taking the time to help me out with this question.

Bill
