fATPL, cost approx 55k. That takes into consideration the NVQ benefit about a year ago. Some of that has been from family, some an HSBC Professional Studies Loan (30k), approx 5k worth has been paid by RAF flying scholarship and the Air League. Having to renew ratings and do an MCC course later this year and that will probably set me back approx £6500.
For those of you busting a gut to find money for ratings, cannot recommend the Air League enough. A few hours paid for here or there towards specific ratings is extremely useful at the moment. They have a website. Also believe GAPAN have a few sponsorships too.
My new alternative career is bank-robbing and wondered if anyone wanted to join my gang.....pensions are being provided by HRH QE and they also have creche facilities too.
