Thanks for your quick response.
I have considered this but it's just too expensive at 50-60k - although I did hear about cloud9aviation offering it for £29,995 but no one can provide feedback as they're relatively new.
Unfortunately I don't have my parents throwing money at me and although I understand a loan can be obtained, this is likely to be on the basis that it is secured on a property and this is a definite no no. Plus i'm already £12k in debt from University
