where do you work at the moment? I mean how much do you earn a year?
What degree have you got or have you got? or have you got a Masters MA?

by having a job the banks will give you a credit card. I know the rates are 15-20% but you can put it on that and keep and keep increasing the amount you borrowed. Its no where the cheapest idea, but it does work. I know someone who did it. If you want the rating so badly when that is one of the main ideas.

Just one thing to remember you are very unlikely to get a pilots at the end of the course. I still quote to people there was 650 pilot who appiled for one first officers job in january 2010. they also closed this job openning 3 weeks early due to the amount of pilots who had appiled.


Check this out on pprune for other experience pilots looking for work. this is what I and you will be up againist>>>

You also need to factor into the amount a type rating, and be able to spend £7,500 each year after finishing to keep current and keep on flying. it could be a couple of years after you have finished before you got a job..

I wish you all the best and Good Luck with your future.
