So, here's the situation then: I'm not going to go pro, I just want to add on the ratings for my own satisfaction. IR is the next biggie, but because that will eat up a lot of time, finishing it up will have to wait. (I will continue to prep for the written, though.)
So, people say the multi only takes a few lessons. Additionally, I have some multi time. Why not do that now? WAIT! Let me anticipate your objections:
Objection #1: "No FBO will let you rent one to fly solo without your IR."
Response: I don't care. I don't want to fly multi solo. There are too many systems and too much to forget, especially at my stage.
Objection #2: "You'll have to take another checkride after the IR to add instrument priviledges to the multi."
Response: That's fine by me. By the time I have my IR, I'll need a refresher for the multi.
Objection #3: "If you do the multi first, you'll end up spending more money if you need to go back and take another ride to add instrument priviledges."
REsponse: I can't start thinking about money! If I did, I wouldn't fly at all! Plus, again, additional training would be worth it, to me.
So, what do you think?
