Common mistake that I couldn't resist making fun of

But yes, after you complete the training fATPL (ATPL exams and CPL/IR/MCC) which is what OAT / CabAir / FTE will offer, you will be looking at the other threads of people on here who have also done the course and can't get a job without a TR. So your then in a position where do you spend £20k on a A320 / 737 TR + Line Training and up your chances of a pilot job? £100,000 spent on training and no real guarentee of a job .

Going modular will save you money but then if you look at threads on Modular v Integrated (that's another story) you might save yourself money but as the rumours go might have even less chance of getting a job against a person who did the 'Integrated course'. I don't have £100,000 so I have no choice .

Good luck - plenty of Airlines will offer bonds so try and keep your head up.
