Hi Crescent,

OK, just to give you a brief insight into how I did it.

Got my PPL by doing a University degree with "pilot studies" that cost 3300 Pounds sterling. Passed my PPL skills test May 2008.

Started Distance learning ATPLs June 2008, finished all 14 exams passed April 2009.
Took a month off my studies, September- October 2008. Did 95 hours hours builiding, solo and 5 hours night rating.
Then completed my multi engine instrument rating and multi engine piston rating from 15th may 2009 and passed IR skills test on the 31st May 2009, thats about 2 weeks flying every day In Greece. Then did my CPL, reduced to 15 hours, in about 4 weeks- passed CPL skills test 1st July 2009. Total costs including PPL, 40,000 pounds sterling. MCC completed August 2009. Less than 18 months total and have considerably less debt than integrated students, loan repaymnets of 400 a month over 8 years, you can live with that.....

One more thing, by checking peoples profiles you will find whether your fellow pruners are wannabes still in training, FIs, airline pilots or anything else.
