Lots of good advice above...this isn't just another 9/11, GW1 or SARs "blip"...the industry is looking at structural change.

It doesn't matter how it's spun or what the "schools" say the fact is anybody investing serious money at the moment with a view to entering paid employment as an airline pilot in around 18 months time is taking a very serious and very risky gamble with their own (or somebody else's) money..therefore:

1. Anyone stubbornly insisting on starting an integrated course now should plan on having the resources (cash) available post course completion to keep their licence/rating valid for an indeterminate period post that training.

2. When the market starts to pick up the airlines will be the buyers in a buyers market..previously advertised/rumoured T&Cs may well not apply.
