re jobs

Hi Mady,

how much longer is it likely to take you to finish training then ?


i would be very interested & hopeful about your prospects of landing a decent job.

my situation is complex as i currently live in france , but my partner has decided to return to th UK to live with the children , once our property / business here is sold then i will return too.However i dont want to go back to my previous role in sales management - really looking to do something interesting / challenging which i can do in the future overseas again when the kids have grown up or possibly set up a business doing tourist flights somewhere.

i am being quoted around £70 k to become qualified & ir rated - which is a big chunk of money to risk,i could simply buy a franchise or set up a business which would bring in profit / income much sooner than becoming a pilot would - so i am in a bit of a tailspin just now !!
