As the others have said - you need an 'grand plan' to get the dosh you need. I see two possible ways of doing it - the long way or the short way (These are the options I see myself faced with - I am graduating in June and will work as an IT Contractor (good money after a short period - if you can blag a first job, stick in it for 6 months and specialise in an area of IT - this is how to make the big bucks quickly. Once you are a specialist, agencies will fall over themselves to offer you work - rates in London for e.g. - database developers can be in the range £10-40/hour+++)) ... anyway back to the flying!!
Option 1: An integrated course
Looking at around £50k (Oxford)
Save as much as you can per month.
E.g. - if you take home £3000 a month after tax, save £1500/month and you will have the money in 2yrs 9months - all going well.
Option 2: Modular
Spending and saving as you go.
E.g. - save £4000 - get the PPL
Oxfords modular course comes out at about 27-28k not including PPL and 150 hrs you need to start!

My experience with loans is not good as the others said, unless you have capital.
Another option is to dissapear overseas (Dubai...no tax!!!)
