Scroggs:
I am 23, 24 in October. I dont have any financial commitments such as a mortgage etc, just a loan on my car. Hence why I would have to sell it in order to use the money for the flying.

As far as flying experience goes I have a PPL with 70 Hours, looking in going to the states to build some hours over there.

Im an Assistant fighter controller in the Air Force.

Many thanks for your thoughts, You are most probably right about the Police and the training involved. I knew that the training would be tough. But as you say, if its flying that I really want, which it is, then all out it should be. Just get a job to keep my head above the water. Im not one of these desprate to be in the RHS of a 73 or 320. I just want to achieve my ambition of flying professionally. Id be more than happy city hopping in a dash or ATR.

I would most certainly go modular as i would'nt be able to afford the integrated route.

Quite spooky as Im from Bournemouth too! Looking to do my groundschool at GTS, been over there, a very professional and helpful looking outfit.

Hope this helps
