dan,

I bet that at least 90% of people who train to become a professional pilot do not have the money so they either have to work for it, or get a loan. So I don't think that anyone is really disadvantaged money-wise. Sure it would be easier if we all had 40-60k sat in our back pockets but we simply don't. I'm still convinced that the risk in itself offsets people who would do it on a whim more so than it stops the disadvantaged from getting their licences.

preduk,

Thats good, glad to see that it isn't shut off from us English!
