Welcome to our collective financial black hole called aviation....
'nother bit of advice (or if someone posted this and I missed it, then I apologise) - if it was me, I wouldnt fall for any "money up front" packages. Too many punters have seen their savings disappear when schools have gone bump overnight.
Keep your savings in an interest earning account, utilise 0% credit cards to spin out payment day as long as poss and pay as you go. Keeps it flexible too - if you decide you want to continue at another school, then you can move on just like that.
Good Luck, and hopefully we'll all be congratulating you on solos, cross countries, tickets and good ideas in the New Year!
