You are gonna pay for your training whatever way you do it. This way you don't have to front up the cash, but you still pay.
There are pro's and cons but I don't think anyone will complain that has got thru and is sitting in a nice shiny jet.
I missed on the sim and am in a better position financially for it, but had to do it on my own which was harder.
With only £18000 of debt now (with no interest accruing) and a good job I am not complaining.
It's not a jet yet (and yes I fly passengers) but I'll be a better pilot personally for it.
And no its not in the UK or a third world country...
p.s, It's a great scheme run by great people so good luck to ya all.
