The majority seems to want to get into a shiny jet ASAP - sorry but that is not flying!
Why the rush? Work your way up and get priceless experience flying all types in all weather.
Of course, people would say that they need a good paying flying career to start paying off loans. Well WTF did you have to get into such debt? What was wrong with modular?-paying as you fly? And working at the same time gaining social skills and maturity!!
I'm going to sound like a broken record here but it is this "rush" to pull on a uniform, shag a hostess and fly an airliner which has caused T&Cs to erode.
WTFing rush?
I will NEVER prostitute myself by paying for a TR. Even in the recession. If it means I spend 5 years spending thousands of pounds per year to keep current before I even get a job towing gliders then so be it.
