Frank (good name by the way) - you had a good class who have done well. The average would be far less and you quote no figures for a similar group of modular grads.
I have an old friend who completed modular training at a small out of the way FTO and ALL 7 training at the same time as him now fly for British airlines. Things certainly have picked up. The case for the £25,000 Integrated premium remains to be conclusively made I am afraid.
Glad it worked for you though.
Cheers
