Hi fellow guys and girls.

My apologies if this subject is a bit dull, but it would satisfy my curiosity...

Earlier this week I was sitting in the pub discussing aviation training with a very good friend who wishes to start his PPL training. As with everything in aviation, the cashflow is always a big issue, and we spent hours discussing how he could budget for the course.

After leaving, a thought popped into my head.... if we summed all the money that budding commercial pilots owe in career development loans, bank loans, and other borrowed money, how much would that total?

£100,000 sterling gbp?
£500,000 sterling gbp?
£1,000,000 sterling gbp?
£5,000,000 sterling gbp?

This is my first post on PPRUNE, and I'm sure this might well be too much of a personal question, and one which I may risk a lot of pilots telling me to stop sticking my nose in where it's not belonged



but I was wondering if you pilots out there may be able to think of a way of totalling this value, and get back to me?

Thanks everyone.
