How about LOWER prices?

How about the fact that less people will be foolish enough to get into this "game" at the moment. Whilst the economy is crumbling and the future for pilots looks bleak then perhaps there will be fewer numbers going through the doors of FTOs? They may actually need to lower prices or offer some sort of insentive to keep the number of trainees up. Either way training will stay a complete rip off and we will continue to be ripped off by the likes of the CAA and their ludicrous charges. To be honest I am sick to death of FTOs thinking they are somehow doing students a favour by training them. They need to remember that trainees keep them employed.

Hard hat on for inevitable predictable wrath of abuse for dare suggesting an alternative view.......
