Hello,
My name is Ric and this website is probably the most useful I've come across, so thankyou for your information/opinions
Anyway, my question is, what is the best move for me for the near future?
My story is I'm going to university this year to study a 3 year degree in Computing and Management Studies at Newcastle University.
The likely fact is that I'll probably be a lot of debt and have to get a job to pay it off and paying for flight training isn't an easy option to take.
I've short listed acouple of routes I can take:
1. Apply for the RAF (which I am currently doing for a pilots bursary)
2. After university get a job save up for acouple of years and join OAT/CTC
3. After university get a job and do it the modular route (f)ATPL
I guess it is just the money factor. I've read round the forum that training could range from a little as 30k to 100k and having student debt on top means more money to pay off.
Anyway, sorry to rant on
Thanks
Ric
