I do see what your saying WWW.
I personally think CTC is a great course. However, I have this gut feeling that my dream is to keep it all local. Join my local flying club; do my commercial training at a local flight school and get a job with a local airline flying around the Scottish islands and mainland. True flying.
I did think for awhile, why don't I just take my degree to the next level and become a lawyer, but the thought of sitting in that sort of environment for the rest of my life scares me. When I'm sitting at Prestwick and you see the brand new Easyjet aircraft with recently qualified crews doing their circuits, I just think I want a piece of that action.
