God the Mod v Int debate is like a black hole.... you try your heart out to stay away having gone over it before but somehow it sucks you in anyway!!!
PT Flyer - If the difference was only 10k we would all be doing it, including me. It isn't and I'm not. I sat down and worked out the full costs of training Int and the full costs of training on a full time modular course with one training provider without any breaks (sounds alot like int that doesn't it!)
The financial difference alone (in my case) was about 30k. However this would admittably be slightly bigger for me given that I wil be living at home rent free as opposed to away on Int paying for board. But even without that in the equation the difference is about 20k!
I'm sure that airlines like students that say they've trained integrated but from pilots I've spoken to who have got jobs in the last few years I don't think that going Int will earn me many more, if ANY more, brownie points than going down the route described above, i.e full time, without breaks with one respected FTO. (and manage to save myself a fair whack in the process)
