Thank you for all your comments, I should have added that it's not a lack of scholarships etc, it's more "advantages" as there are a high demand for Pilot positions, but airlines are cutting. I've seen several programs run by airlines, most of which require atleast 150 hours flying time, holding a PPL, valid passport(not a problem), but a security bond of roughly £69,000 which I would not be able to fund until I was verging on 90 unless I won the lottery when I was 18. Through researching a few of the programs, like Monarch, British Airways, and Atlantic Air I think it was. There was one page in particular that I didn't understand, to do with the funding. As I do not have much experience with finances, the funding options. (Monarch Wings Finance | CTC Wings) Which could completely turn around how I would get into it if selected. If anyone could translate this currently foreign language to me, it would be helpful
