CPL (H) without IR
Hello there,
I'm curious to know what kind of jobs are about that don't require an IR (apart from instructing and sightseeing). With it costing upwards of £40K, I wondered if it is a worthwhile investment for someone who may not utilise it for offshore/HEMS etc.
So, does general charter require an IR?
Shuttling guests to and thro sporting events?
Ariel work such as heli-logging/surveying?
Thanks in advance...

If you want to earn a half decent crust then you will need a IR although at present that's probably not a good idea.
Limited to VFR could limit your salary quite significantly.
VFR in this country is not particularly reliable so although many flights maybe carried out VFR if the a/c and pilot are IR it makes for better business.

Whether you need an ir or not Also depends on where on this planet you intend to work.
I have an Easa multi engine ir and so far I've never used it, actually all my Easa license and ratings have been a huge investment with zero returns. But thankfully with my faa tickets I can work well pretty much all over the world👍
