Lotte, if you`re serious about this you could perhaps begin your search by looking at one of the roots of this problem; European flightschools! Look at what they "offer" initially, and what they charge for the initial schooling of fresh students. And then look at what they "offer" in terms of further training when it comes to the end of the initial training. Fact is that you most likely won`t be able to land a job straight out of flightschool due to lack of experience. So what often is being offered is pay-to-fly with a commercial carrier for a certain amount of time to gain experience (read flighthours, not stick and rudder experience). It`s these students who are in the midst of their training, and those presently being offered pay-to-fly linetraining that I recommend you have a chat with
