HV,

 

Not a direct answer to the question, but I've been looking into the IF rating, too. If you want to go the cheapest way, consider doing as much of the training as possible in a nice inexpensive little fixed wing aircraft like a Cessna 150/152! I think they go for around $100/hr...

 

Also, consider doing all of the groundschool studying yourself. There is no official groundschool requirement and it could save you a bundle...

You never looked at the gages before - why you gonna start now?

That's only 'cause I was distracted by the toe of the skid flying off into the infield! I've discovered, subsequently, that they come in handy.

which infield???

 

so what? you want wheels now?

 

 

seriously, on the westcoast i would recommend PRO IFR. john's set up is top notch :up:

Ah, the good ol' departing skid chunks...

 

There was this one time at training camp...

412: Thanks for the Pro IFR endorsement. I checked out their website and was pretty impressed.

P.S. The infield was Edmonton... and now I know why they have the "Tennis Ball Mod" on 500 skids... It happened two years in a row doing auto's with Vertical Ref... Hmmm... maybe I see a pattern...
