This thread has been done sooooooooooooooo many times, pretty much all MECIR will cost you a bucket, but its really what aircraft are you going to waste the cash on my advise dont do it in a seminole or duchess. Spend the money and do it in a c310 or barron they are the best aircraft that will get you a job and you wont have to spend extra on i.c.u.s and garbage like that...
