Hi Justin, I think I agree with the 2nd group you asked. You may like to read the reply I wrote to another guy who asked..'what to do? Instructor rating or m/ecir'. Most people are lucky if they can get a job on a sgl eng a/c doing VFR charter. The chances of getting a job on an m/e IFR a/c with a bare cpl are very low. To be of any use you have to also keep the rating current and without a job this in itself can be expensive. I did an Instructors rating 3 months after I got my CPL. I got a job out at Bourke 2 months later flying both charter and doing Instruction. After 6 months of Instruction I had about 600hrs Total time and then did an IFR. If you really don't want to do the Instructors rating friends I had went up to Darwin or PNG (be careful) to get a charter job. Even then there was a lot of competition. Some flying schools also offer some work if you do an Instructor rating with them. Make some enquiries by visiting people rather than just writing. Good Luck. Phill
