Too many people not enough jobs.

You will need more than an FATPL to get a job, you'll need quite a lot of money and the ability to get out there and actually seek out the jobs. you can sit at home and apply online all you like but it will get you nowhere.

I'm working and I love it but it's been a seriously hard slog and it's not like my job is 100% secure.

Sure it's a dream but there are other great careers out there you can get into that cost you a lot less than the 80k you haven't spent yet (TR included) you've spent at the moment 7k at the most plus flying hours.

Why not get your exams and wait a year before doing your CPL and see if you really still want to do it??
