Hey Folks,
I'm kind of aiming this post at younger people say 18-25 who are training pilots working their way towards a professional licence.
Please send me in the right direction if this has been posted before but how are you able to afford your flying training? With part time work I'm able to afford PPL flying lessons but only at a rate to fulfil me getting in the air for 1-2 hours a MONTH on student job money.
With some people here on integrated courses costing circa £60K and up and at a young age, how were you able to afford such huge expenses? Do you have a rich family backing? Were you able to find yourself in a highly paid job on leaving education or were you able to get a bank loan?
In regards to a bank loan (Such as that offered by HSBC for professional studies) how would I be able to secure something like this bearing in mind im only 18 with my only collateral being a classic mini car and my computer...(lol!). I'm going to assume...pretty much impossible!
