Hopefully you have spotted a flaw in the great CAA plan. That being to wastlesly use money in the great aim of producing fewer pilots.
If your perception is true then go for it. But to be honest the IR is such a great money pit that another £1,800 will easily be spent in the pusuit of the impossible. From WAC that may pay for your transit flights to the great test centre in the sky.
I dearly hope you have found a flaw in the great money swallowing system.
Good luck in your dreams.

Ps I'm not trying to sound cynical but the IR is a great challenge. Imagine one of those games where you thread a metal ring along a coathanger bent in most difficult ways without setting off the light. Now imagine doing that for 2.2 hours. That is what the IR is like. Maybe my experience was unusual or maybe a few graduates of the scheme will back me up.
