Well, I've spent the last few days trying to figure out a way I could afford to do the Flybe MAPS scheme - but found that I can't.
Despite the potential job at the end of the course, BBVA still require UK based assets as security on the loan. After the monthly repayment on the loan, the remainder of the flybe cadet salary would not be enough to live on for myself let alone wife and kid.
I think I'd be incredibly foolish to risk my house in this way so have cancelled my interview. I'm disappointed as you can imagine but think it's best in the long run. Plans are afoot, however, to run the modular gauntlett whilst working full-time, so all is not lost.
Good luck to all you other candidates, I hope it works out better for you.
