Thumbs up

Well as someone else who was integrated but left to go modular I would agree with the Vicar of Dibley about getting out and about more on the modular route. I have met oodles more contacts through going modular and flown into many more different places in the world than I could've if I'd stayed integrated.

I have had to make decisions that would've been made for me by the integrated school on safety matters and have flown in more testing conditions than would've been allowed due to insurance and licence limitations imposed at large integrated flight training establishments.

On the plus side for the integrated route........

I do know two people fresh out of integrated courses who have just got jet jobs only a few weeks after leaving training and another who's at the second stage of landing a turbo-prop job. Three in under a month. Not bad that is it?

Wouldn't want to make you all moist unnecessarily but judging from this things *could* be improving .......for integrated graduates anyway, no?

I'm happy to be modular though if anyone's interested!
