Yeah Yeah..wassup,

Just beware, after you are successful with the ATP scheme selection - no doubt. You will be in for financial hell. Just m,ake sure you will have adequate finances to carry you through your 6 month internship.

I know of ATP cadets currently flying online scrapeing pennies off the floor to just to buy a loaf of bread. Remember..you could be based away from home. Your magical allowance of 800 squid plus flight pay will barely cover...

1. Visting home to see the G/F (Car repairs...petrol)
2. Rent
3. Food/Alcohol/clothes
4. council Taxes
5. Loan and Credit Card repayments

I just want to advise you on what you could face from a financial point of view as this is easily overlooked.

It is a great opportunity and nothing beats cruising in an airliner at 35000 feet. Its off da hook ..and I wouldn't do anything else.. for real.

Good luck with the Phases and it keep tight.
