Dan,

Many thanks for your advice. I didn't mean to reopen the modular vs integrated argument, I'm just a tad concerned that as Airlines begin to recruit pilots again their preference seems to be for students from integrated courses (e.g. BA approaching OAT & Cabair). I also read that some airlines have a minimum hour requriement for modular graduates - i.e. 1000 hours, but none if you are from an integrated background...

However, after a fair amount of research I admit that I'm tempted by the EFT course. The thought of gaining over 1000 hours certainly appeals to me! And, lets face it, a job flying turbo props certainly can't be a bad thing, especially compared to my current desk job! I'm flying out to Florida in Nov to have a look around the school. I should have a clearer idea after that.

All the best to you & good luck with your ATPL exams
JN
