Heh, yeah i totally agree!
I think a PPL would be a nice thing to have in your pocket, but as would be a nice lump sum of about £6k with working through college.
I dont think Uni is right for me to be honest, and i cant really explain why!
And yeah, i think with my first wages ill hop into a nice prop and have a senic instructed flight, only to reinforce what my thoughts are now!
I have had one flight when i went to RAF Leeming for my Works Experience, which was more of an acrobatic flight, but i still got to have a nice turn of the controls and got to do a loop!
And you said get "loads" of money behind you, the most realistically is about £12k including the money earned through college, this would mean spending some whilst learning to drive, and little bits and bobs here and there.
I am sure my parents would also help with money, not sure how much they would put in mind. Say, if i went to FTE they would most probably have to put their house on a secured loan, which would be the biggest help, but im not sure they would go this far
I just wish i could go into the future and be ready to go to an FTO with some nice A-Levels behind me, and a nice sum of money!
Thanks again Canadapilot,
Chris.
EDITED for this question
How much would an unsecured loan go up to, the largest possible unsecured loan on the planet? Anyone managed to get one with a highstreet bank for a fairly large sum of money? If so tell tell tell!
