    Commercial?

    I would certainly recommend it. I haven't done mine yet, but plan to. Don't have any immediate plans to do any fly for hire, but at some point down the road, maybe at retirement, I have this notion that I might want to use it. Always good to have under the belt anyway. My $0.02 (Cdn)
