Similar position with me...26, no commitments, reasonablly well paid job, no substantial wads of cash saved.
I'm considering the modular route, firstly getting the ppl (in the US). The only thing I'm concerned about is how to take time out for flying and also keep the job which will be funding it?? I mean 5 weeks in the US for ppl is possible but that would be all my holiday used up for the year, so I'd have to wait a year before going off to do the next stage.
I could use the local flight schools, but living in the south west (nr Exeter) the only schools around charge approx £100 per hour-- not the cheapest way to do it!!
(Then there's the problem of not having a mortgage and not likely to be able to get one for another few years whilst training, do I want to be paying a mortgage into my 60s, the clocks ticking and all that!)
These are the concerns I am currently juggling in my head, but having said that I am sure it will all be worth it in the end...this is where you reassure me..!
