Hi, I'm not sure that this is the correct place but hey ho...
I've recently completed my university law degree and currently deciding what to do with my life career wise and it's currently lawyer v pilot. Piloting would be a dream job (I've always loved planes and airports) and it would pay similarly to law. Therefore, I'm currently contemplating applying for CTC Wings (or the one or two others out there like Netjets) as a way of avoiding the massive costs of training. However, I have noticed that these schemes do require a full security bond to be payed (usually around £60,000). I know that after 'graduating' I'd get the money back from my employer but the idea of £60k floating over my head until that times worries me significantly.
So I ask, what do you guys make of this? Is there anyway around it(perhaps by insuring oneself against non-employment etc)? It's a mighty big gamble!
