Thanks for clarifying that, Dirty Sanchez. Apologies if I misinterpreted your comments. As always, in any fly on the wall documentary, participants are at the mercy of the programme makers. I wholly agree with your remarks about the financial commitments demanded in order to enter this industry, one only hopes that it is money well spent. At least in the case of the BA FPP scheme the outlay is recoverable, albeit over a 7 year period, which effectively bonds the successful candidate until it can be repaid. Of course, when interest rates start to rise the non-recoverable element over and above the £84k, will take on an even greater significance as the interest owed accrues over effectively a 9 year period.
