PIGDOG,
You ask ‘If the airlines bean counters aren't going to take on any risk, then why should students, who would be in a much worse situation to pay off a debt, should all go tits-up.?’
My question to you is: are you being serious when you ask this question?
Why should the students take the risk and not the airline? It’s very simple – because there are hundreds if not thousands of guys and a fair amount of girls willing to spend thousands with the hope of an airline job.
I have to agree with wubalaj, fastjet2k et al, a course affiliated with an airline is not to be knocked even if a job at the end isn’t set in stone. I would much rather take my seventy grand chance with an approved scheme than be just be another guy. There will always be people that poo poo these schemes for the sake of poo pooing something. Sad bast_rds.
Good Luck to those having a pop at the Thompsonfly scheme.
