Most guys I know who went to "cheap" Flightschool or did it the modular way did not find a good job and have ****ty careers! These are the guys end up in pay to fly sheme's.....
getting off topic and i don't want to turn this positive thread into a negative rant but...

I did it the 'cheap' way, modular, part time, alongside my other career, so i didn't give up my old job until I had a job offer - which was straight after flight school thanks to a recomendation from the school to one of their contacts (see - this doesn't only happen at oxford!)
I fly for a great small airline which gets me loads of great experience, and I love it.
Oh, yeah, and I'm in the BA hold pool - Oh golly gosh, a modular boy going to BA, whatever next. See that can happen too if you didn't go to Oxford.

Anyoo - another thing I love. Sitting in the garden this afternoon looking up at an airliner going over - 5 years ago I looked up and though "if only...I wish", now I look up and think "cool, my turn on friday...."
