My intended path to CPL/IR - advice needed

Hi guys,

After many years of working after leaving university i have finally saved enough money for flight training. I could easily attend FTE or Oxford and not worry about the financials. When i left university i had decided to embark upon the integrated route as soon as i had the money, now that i do i am not sure i want to spend all that money.

Infact i have decided to take the modular route and i was wondering if i can have your opinions on my choice (please i don't want to start another modular v integrated debate!) and i just want to go to a place where i can do all the training under one roof:-

1) Attend EFT in the states and enroll upon the Fast track to jet program. Cost £23k with food etc i anticipate a total spend of £30k.

2) Apply to Ryan Air and and pay for type rating through CAE or SAS. Total spend about £22k including food, living etc (i have read all the threads regarding ryan air).

£52k total much cheaper than FTE & Oxford

3) Stay with Ryan for 4/5 years and transfer to another airline.

So what do you guys think?

Kind Regards,

+David
