MECR/IR Renewal
 

Folks

Need your advice - fATPL and have not flown for about 9 months due to no time etc..

Getting round to having to renew my licences etc.
Should I:
1. Renew IR through FNPT2 - possibly in 10 hours at approx 100 squid an hour = 1300
2. Renew IR whilst at same time renewing MECR (all in aircraft - couple of hours in FNPT2) at approx 250 squid an hour = 2500
3. Renew IR through option 1 and then do some single engine flying to get me back into the groove again? =approx 2000

What do you think - what is more useful?
I need to renew my IR but is MECR only useful if you actually want to fly some ME aircraft? Realistically am I only going to be needing it when I actually get a job?

Really not sure what to do and would like all applicable advice. (to note - job applications continuosly being sent off)

Cheers

:ok:

I am finding it hard to believe that none of you have been through this situation before! No-one willing to give a bit of advice? Has Pprune really descended into such a poor show that people will only post to slag each other off?

Sad day:(

I know the feeling
 

I am in exactly the same situation and have thought through all the above options many times and can't decide on the best one!

I am swaying towards getting my MECR because if the situation arose where I needed to fly a twin at short notice (I can't think of one but you never know!) I would like to be able to.

You could try posting this in the jobs section, most people who read here are either doing training or about to, whereas those in the 'desperate for a job' section will be in the same boat.... aircraft... whatever!

Some sims can be used to renew both multi and IR. Send me a PM with a contact email address or phone number to find out where, as I cannot advertise here!

What sims can be used to revalidate a MEP Class rating???

Certainly not an FNPT II.

Certain FNPT II sims with extended capabilities can be used. I cannot tell you the details, I am but a simple ATPL ground instructor, only qualified to teach PPL flight in single-enginge aircraft.
