If like me his loan from hsbc can be paid over 11 years,lose the £25k his dad lent him then he still has £100k to pay the bank...
At the profesional study loan rates thats knocking on the door of £1300-£1400 a month repayments for
11 years!
Im glad I'm taking the modular route
Not wanting to get in to the SSTR argument again,but since he paid for his type rating he(and everybody else) may as well go modular at £35-40k and buy a type(booooo!) ending up with £60k to pay back (thats less than the basic APP course),if you are daft enough to pay for a TR,then they don't care which training route you took.
