@jetpipe,
If i were you, go for ryanair. Yes, 30k is lot of money but you gain experience and your marketvalue will go up. What experience do you gain if you gain jobless???
It will be hard in the beginning but it will pay off later on.
Good luck and dont forget to enjoy the typerating.
Open your eyes, look at all of the unemployed BMI Baby pilots. Experience currently means diddly squat. Experience costs the airlines money and all they really want is trainers and pay to fly inexperienced cadets that they can rape.
