Why is Stapleford Cheaper?? or am I missing something!?
Hi
Am looking to do a No Hours to frozen ATPL course. Am 30 years old and have saved 60k from current career to help realise this dream.
Have condidered the integrated v Modular argument and come to the conclusion that Integrated would be better for someone of my mature years so I can get into a position where I can market myself ASAP.
The decision I now face is where do I train? Would like to be based in the UK and I reckon I have 3 oprion
1) Oxford Aviation - 65k ish
2) Cabair - 55k ish
3) Stapleford - 35k (plus option of 25k for Astraeus with 100h on type B737)
As I see it for the same price as Oxford I could so to Stapleford, get the same qualification and also get 100h on a B737!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So would I be mad to go to Oxford or Cabair?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Also has anyone been to Stapleford? Thoughts on the Astraeus Type rating (I know this wont guarentee a job but surely it will make you more marketable than if you came straight from OAT or Cabair with no Type hours)???
Staplefors also reckon 85% of Integrated Grads in 2005 now have a job - is this bull****!!!!?
Thanks
Rob
