Modular
Kempus
Many choose the Modular route as it enables them to train in sync with their ability to raise the required funds.
What is clear is that the Modular route can cost quite a lot less than Integrated, and result in rather more actual flight hours logged by the time you finish.
If you have the funds available, you can also replicate an Integrated course within a Modular approach.
1) Full time PPL - 1 month (approx 50 hours)
2) Full time ATPL theoretical study - 6 months
3) Full time hours building including night rating (approx 100 hours – 2 months max)
4) CPL / ME / IR back to back (approx 84 hours 2 ½ months)
With safety time and breaks etc this can work out at around 13 months, 230 hours total time and approx £45,000 + accomodation etc.
Today, the Airlines are rather less concerned with where you trained, and rather more interested in your total hours (especially multi), and whether you achieved high grades at ATPL, plus a first time (series) pass at the IR.
