no sponsor,

I'm simply weighing up all my options, that's all. I've seen a couple of people say the price for the integrated course at WMU is a bit steep. If it's more than £35,000 (i.e with it being in the States) which it appears to be then in my book it's too much. I may as well train in the UK if I was going to be paying that much. If the price of having air conditioned aircraft pushes the course price up that much then I won't bother. Washing sweaty clothes is a far more preferable (and cheap <img src="tongue.gif" border="0"> ) alternative!

I intend to instruct for at least a year after doing the ATPL so finding an airline job immediately after graduation is not that big a concern. That obviosuly depends on whether there is a sudden upturn in recruiting! <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

All I want is the best course at the best price. In my opinion that doesn't include paying £50,000 to train as a pilot. Plenty of people do it for far less.

Cheers for the advice though.
