I joined CTC in 2003, I was on CP less than 5, I borrowed £65000. I have been paying that off for the last 6 years and will continue to pay that off for 1 more. It costs me 1500/month but fortunately I get paid reasonably.
It now seems the course is more expensive and you will need to factor in a type rating (20K?)
So you will be paying off 1500/month for more like 10 years.
Then you should consider what you will get paid when you get your shiny jet contract. 1200/month? That means you will be losing 300/month before you factor in the fact that you will need to eat & drink & live!
Now I can't pretend to be privvy to the exact figures, I am estimating from some good friends who currently work for the Orange brigade but Im sorry, anyone considering a career in aviation right now need their heads read.
Good luck with your decision.
