Hey guys, Here's the sitch. I've done all 55+ of my training hours so far in a 172. Recently, one of the two 172's we have got bent and is out of service. So the one that is left is booked solid almost constantly. They have an archer that isn't rented out nearly as much but it would require the extra time for a checkout in it. All I have left training wise is my long xc and check ride prep, on the other hand, I might have an opportunity in the next couple of months to buy an archer.
I guess what I'm looking for is how long does it usually take to check out in an archer if all my time is in a 172? Also, realistically, I know it's probably not wise to switch aircraft this late in the training game, but how much of a difference would it really make?
