Thanks for that Clear Prop,
I decided quite a while ago I would not be going for MEIR for the same reasons you outlined.
Something I had been wondering was - can you just do CPL exams instead of ATPLs to go on for instructing. Are you saying it needs to be ATPL's?
I would really like to end up teaching aerobatics since they are such good fun, and quite a challenge to get right - what is the demand like for this type of instruction?
Thanks,
Laurie.
