I will be South Coast based - Bournemouth / Old Sarum / Popham / Thruxton / Goodwood would be ideal. Of course I will move wherever the work is.

I could survive on £500 a month between October and Spring if needs be (I have a girlfriend supporting me through the career change).

My head is spinning at the moment as I am making the career change in April and I could still pull out. The heart is saying go for it, the head is saying "are you mad - we are heading for a recession".

It would be interesting to know what the supply and demand situation is like at the moment and if any FTO / Clubs have started forecasting a major downturn in students and therefore instructor requirement. Surely some must plan ahead (even without a functioning Mk1 Crystal Ball, nobody can deny that the economy is heading the wrong way).
