I CANNOT believe the self centered attitude of some of the posters on this thread.

'I paid more ..so why should anyone else pay less'

Get a life guys. This is a forum where we are supposed to help fellow would be pilots!

Even IF.. and it is a big IF, something were to be done it would take years to pass through our extremely efficent Parliment system and, those who would benefit would be well behind you!!

The best that could be hoped for, in the short term, would be the removal of VAT on commercial training....15%off... is that going to create a flood of new wannabees and put you at the bottom of the pile Quant? If so you have much more to worry about!

Fortunatley I got through most of my training with the help of NVQ status and, am more than happy to see future pilots get all the help they can.

If thats a problem...go get that degree in David Beckam studies...it's more suited to a selfish dimeanor, and, you'll get Government help!!!
