I read earlier in this post that a young enthusiastic guy has just got a £35K loan from HSBC, and then what WWW had to say with caution about repayments.
First of all £35K WILL NOT pay for all your modular training and living costs if you're not working during this time, no matter which school you go to or which ever country you part train for your JAR license.
Three years ago I started hour building in the states (already had a ppl), then continued the rest up to MCC part time while working. Even with being prudent, and working while training, my total all in costs for a JAA frozen ATPL and MCC was £55K. Be careful with regard to what the schools tell you, they are very convincing when you have really no idea yet how it all works..
With regard to repayments, I can assure you WWW, is not wrong. I'm now lucky enough to be flying a jet for a living and earning a good income, however, as WWW said, I'm paying a third of my income in training loan repayments, and drive a ten year old banger... Be careful my friend!
