I would have to agree with Redsnails post from my research 35 k AUD is conservative unless you have an "Uncle in Surrey". $15k usd sounds very cheap Id say that would get you Frozen ATPL without MCC. You see Canopy I dont know how many hours you got but If you complete this and look for work youll be competing with a Multitude of British colleagues with 200-300 hRS.
I have a mate here in Carribean spent about 30 k usd and he had Turbine and Jet Time with no joy.
Plus its bloody cold there anyhow
