Wink Is a PPL a benefit with BA? Glasgow Flying Club?

Hey there,
I am currently applying to BA for their training scheme for the second time - I only got to the Aptitiudes the last time. However, this time I am determined I am going to get through this stage and progress onto the final board. I was just wondering if anyone knew whether it would be beneficial to me to either have a PPL or currently training for a PPL. I recently spoke to two Britannia pilots and they both said that it would definately be bonus points. However as you all know it is very expensive. I was looking into Glasgow Flying Club and they said that by the end of it, it could cost me between 8000 and 10000 pounds. I realise that I could take out a loan, but I do not want to make any rash decisions about it, if it is not going to benefit me. Also has anyone flown at Glasgow Flying Club before? if so can they tell me what it is like? Any information would be useful.
Regards
Rossco
