jaa IRI
Dear All
i am trying to gather as many info as i can about the IRI course, i do not have the FI ticket however i do meet all the requirements to get an IRI ticket (800hrs ifr among others).
I would love to teach without stepping on the path of younger flight instructors striving to rake up the hours to land a "better" job though, just to help out.
To your experience do you know if given the option, it would be better to get the ticket at the same flight school where you then plan to teach even though far fetched, or to get the ticket where you can get it for the least amount of money and at a far more comfortable location that does nt entail driving for three hours at the time.
Also, once i get the ticket, will i need a number of hours before being releised and being able to exercise all my previleges?
And last but not least, if one day i will elect to get the FI certificate, will i have to attend the same ground school or the class that i will take for the IRI will be taken into account (time for me is a factor since i have a day job and i will have to invest a big chunck of my days off towards achieving that goal)
thanks and happy landings
