I seem to recall that doing the Integrated course gives you an fATPL but no PPL, so you can't even fly for fun once you have spent all that money! Crazy, if true.

But, if you've got £75,000 for an Integrated course, why not get a £7,000 PPL beforehand? It's only money....

But don't fret because although when you finish the course you will have far fewer hours Total Time than a modular student, your FTO will presumably get you a job with one of its 'client airlines', so your relative lack of flying experience will be no hindrance...and you can then fly for fun in your spare time!
