I'm very surprised you managed to do it that cheaply. When you say your training cost was just over £36000 does that mean you haven't included a figure for hour building?

If I hadn't of done an MCC I would have saved £3500. If I'd applied to CTC as soon as I passed my CPL/IR I could have saved on my MEP and IR renewals approx £1500. Not doing an IMC would have saved a further £2800. That would bring my training costs down from £53489 to £45689. But that’s still £10k more than you.

Did you do your training in the UK?

I think there are plenty of people who would love to have some more details of where you trained and what is included in your figures

The £6885 included absolutely everything except the cross country landing fees. That includes all the equipment I've listed above, exam fees the lot. I was much happier to do that than go with other companies that had loads of hidden extras.
