Eye eye mooney boy, I suppose Im in a similarish situation but Im tryin to decide whether or not to complete my PPL before I go to either oxford or Jerez. Ive done sooo much research into flight schools ground schools etc etc and have arrived at the general idea that I will be better off with integrated training. I don't care what people say that it doesn't make a !!!! of difference for jobs, I think at the moment that it does. There seems to be a preference and it it seems safer.
Perhaps you're in a similar situation. Id rather pay the extra bit of money to have a fast track intense sound training course in which I live and breathe flying for 18 months, rather than going here and there everywhere and fartin about with different schools etc.
But then again you're right that you can save the cash for either flying time or a type rating or whatever and maybe it doesnt make a difference for jobs. Its tough decision eh? Let me know what you end up deciding to do. Sorry this post hasn't been much help!
