As someone who is soon to choose a school at which to do my IR I have found this a very interesting thread. It supplies answers to a lot of the questions that I have been trying to find answers to for the last year and gives an insight from both sides of the fence. Only it leaves me just as confused so I'm back to square one - choose the school I prefer overall.
The one point I would like to make though is that in my comparisons of courses from different schools there seems to be very little price difference between them. It seems to me that although FNPTII are cheaper then an hour in a twin, its not by much and I have to admit I would personally prefer to have more actual time in the air for 12k then less for 11k.
I suppose its a similar argument to the old MCC in a full motion B737 or a static FNPTII MCC, its all personal preference
