There probably are.

But how many do you think would take it up?

Given the debt to earning ratio?

Hence why the professional LLB Honours qualification would be more attractive and cost effective.

Flight training is only for the rich or the seriously insane at these levels.

We all know airlines are looking to trim their books and the thought of having to pay back the cost of your training while earning less than a Tube Driver is not a good one.

You will need 25yrs service and have to pay a min of £3200pa to recoup your training cost as a Pilot. And a fair portion of that is VAT hence my post.
