If you are 34 or under it's worth trying CTC Aviation. They have had some good advertising benefit from this forum recently, use the search facility.

CTC Aviation

Instructing is arguably the better route to take. You are going to gather so much more knowledge and experience this way than temping or pursuing a non flying stop gap role. Unfortunately since September an awful lot of CPL/IR graduates have gained FIC ratings and the job market for instructors is perhaps as lean as it is for airline work.

Maybe the ideal solution is to instruct at weekends - always more requirement than weekdays - and work Monday to Friday in a job that is more likely to pay off your debts.

For what it's worth, I went down the instructor route and, if I had my time again, would do the same.

Good Luck!
