Opportunites/Training in Sunny Spain

Hi all,

I'm planning to move down to Spain sometime in the future, say 2 years from now or so. The plan is to train at Jerez, and see how things go from there.

Here's what i'm wondering about though;

Are there many regional airlines in Spain/Portugal offering oppertunites to fly for them, or even offering sponsorship (that I doubt)?
And what are the chances of something with Iberia/Nostrum.

Currently PPL, 18 and got just enough cash currently to put towards training, but more saving and less binge drinking is required !! I am half-way through learning Spanish, and by 2 years time I 'should' be speaking fluently in the local lingo.

As an aside - when I was 15, I got offered full time scholarship with GAPAN, but could not accept due age . What are the possibilties of applying to GAPAN and pointing out that they have offered me scholarship in the past? I still have their original letter if it would help.

Cheers,
RR.
