Getting Multi IFR in Canada or U.S.

[captainSharma]

Hi im private pilot that's just a flight test away from my commercial and i want to go on to my multi IFR. I heard from a few people that the IFR exam in the states is much easier then in Canada. Is it true? and if so is it worth going there and getting it done?

Suck it up and write in Canada, big guy - the rest of us did

Seriously, I'm sure that you could go to the 'Republic of RongoRongoland' and get a licence there by getting your picture taken and paying a licencing fee....question is, what is that licence worth?

Once you get into the way TC asks questions, the exams aren't that hard here.

Also, once you've figured out transportation, lodging, meals, exchange rate, etc... I'd be willing to bet that a Canadian MIFR at your local FTU is pretty cost-equivalent to the USA.

Lastly, a small piece of free advice: both of your posts here seem, to me, to indicate that you are looking for the easy way up. There's no easy way. Developing your skill and craft is a life-long endeavour, and the fight to get a decently-conditioned job flying planes isn't won by not wanting to do some hard work...

Agreed. The easy way isn't always the best way. When you accomplish something more difficult, you know it was well earned.

Easy, fast, shortcuts, etc, might not be the best attitude for a prospective aviator.
