It's not surprising that the FTOs do that, but it just makes it more important to come on places like here and offer the opposing viewpoint. Because when that over-selling employment prospects stretches to people parting with £70k for a course and effectively betting someone's home on those over-sold employment prospects, then it's important people have a balanced view beforehand - not just some fancy FTO PR and a few numbers about pilot recruitment plucked out of the air.

This isn't a game - people don't seem to realise that the numbers on those bank forms have a really serious value and one day they might have to pay it all back. It's so easy to sign everything away when you don't actually see any of the cold, hard cash and you don't have to worry about it for a couple of years.

Also one other thing; TheBeak, if you were sure the guy was a troll, why did you bother writing a three-paragraph reply?! Don't rise to it.
