The order in which things should be done.
Hello all, quick question that I couldn't find the answer to in a search.
Purely hypothetically mind...
If I were a PPL holder with a night rating doing my ATPL groundschool, and I got a multi-engine rating and Instrument rating while doing said groundschool, would I have to redo them for CPL i.e. are they the same ratings for PPL/CPL, and are they transferrable?
Regards
JR

Im no expert,,but I would say that once u have an IR, you have an IR.... The only differences in IR's is whether it is single of multi engine IR....
Presides doin the ground school and an IR @ the same time would be pretty stressful i would say.........

So armed with a Class 1 medical / PPL + Night / ATPL GS complete along with the minimum hours you'll be looking to gain a CPL (replaces the PPL) and a MEIR. Along with a MCC you'll have a fATPL.
Goof luck

You need to disconnect the concept of license and ratings.
An MEP rating is just as valid on a PPL as it is on a CPL, and will transfer over. You might struggle with doing the IR though, as you need to pass the exams first!

Thank you all! 
I agree doing IR simultaneously with ground school would suck ass. I'm bright, but I'm not that bright!
I just wanted to know if it was possible in theory without repeating stuff later on.
My plan was/is to PPL/ NR. Then Ground School while hours building/ MEP rating. THEN CPL/IR
Then get upset 'cos I can't get a job
