If you read FTE's enrolment information, there's a pdf with more info on the loan, you can reduce the repayments by 25% for 2 years, which means about £750-£800 a month. This coincides with the 2 years on a potentially lower flybe salary...

It also mentions the fact that the loan is a secured loan, usually against a property, and there are fees to pay to secure the loan as well

I think if you have previous flying experience the course is reduced, but not like-for-like, for example i seem to recall a figure on similar integrated schemes of 20-25 hours reduction if you have a PPL

Understandably and compared to when i was more active on here a few years back, it seems like the job shortage and recession has really got people thinking 'what if...' and not as many people are as comfortable with the debt/confident about securing a job anymore!
