I too finished a Modular course at the beginning of 2010 after four and a half years of working towards getting what I needed. I managed to get in to the right hand seat of a jet in 2011 with a type rating kindly supplied by the company at no additional charge and began day one of the induction on a full salary. There are still opportunities out there for those who take the modular route, it just takes a lot of hard work.
