Funding for pilot training
Hi,
Just found this forum and find it great.
My question is this, how do any of you fund your private pilot training - PPL and Commercial. I want to get started and having gone down the route of CTC McAlpine application when I was 19yrs old (now 21) and getting to the stage before Sim test before being rejected, I don't think this would be open to me again. Anyone know if you can apply again?
Also I'm told the full cost of training to be a commercial pilot will be in the region of €90,000 (euro). Where do you guys and gals get this sort of money. Have you all got wealthy parents or have you taken out large loans?
I'd appreciate any advice on the dos and don'ts in this regard.
