I assume CAE is relatively legit compared to the other P2F things out there.
I have a contact person who works for CAE in Brussels and in Dubai, and he says there should be no problem at all with succesfully ending up with the F/O position there. He is a personal friend of me and my parents.
Anyway it remains a gamble of 33K USD. As you would guess my parents are funding my training and they are really motivating me to go there and do it...
On the other hand, I would also like to study here with my friends, go to university for a few years, get my instructor rating in the meantime, build hours slowly here and there and look for an opportunity...
The problem here is that I know alot of people who have been looking for a airline job for a looong time, so maybe I won't get this opportunity again.. Thats what I'm worried about that if i decide to stop university, and really want to fly that I'll be pissed that I didn't go to Dubai.
