Not a Brexit fan at all, but let’s not pretend that the tightening of pilot supply in the UK that it has caused (both through right to work and licensing) has done anything other than improve things for the vast majority of low hour or aspiring pilots in the UK.
So if you're one of the lucky 100 or so out of 22,000 (for the Speedbird Academy), your costs are covered... the chances of getting your training costs fully funded by an airline are still vanisingly small... lets not pretend the tightening of supply has suddenly turned the UK into a land of milk and honey for the vast majority of aspiring pilots in the UK.
