Student Funding pulled

I have heard about and seen documents supporting the fact that the student loan scheme covering pilots has been pulled from the shelves.

The story goes .. A flying school in NZ was unhappy about the fact that schools like AFS are now able to provide full funding for there students.

This particular school/establishment complained to the goverment and subsequently it has meant that ALL funding has been pulled

My understanding is that students already within the scheme are able to finish there courses but they will be excepting no other students from Jan 2004

I have heard this is not only effecting Aviation , but Medical and Law

Well Well Well.

What will become of the industry now .. Good or Bad .. ?
