FAA IR(H)- Do North Sea Companies prefer nothing at all?
I'm contemplating doing my FAA IR at Bristows Academy in addition with my EASA CPL Flight training as the IR in the UK is out of my budget.
My question.
After coming back to the UK with a frozen ATPL, will my FAA IR give me any advantage at all in the run for jobs offshore against a similar candidate without one?
Furthermore, will having an FAA IR (assumably in a 22/300) help in anyway when it came to getting through the EASA IR?
Lastly, with my 14 ATPLs completed, what kind of challenge do the EASA IR exams pose?
Comments and opinions received with thanks.
