Alfie, I went modular, and would always recommend that path to everyone - because to go integrated (to me) means that you want a job first, and to be a pilot second. So well done. Having said that, the only advantage of Integrated is the higher chance of getting straight into a jet job. The advantage of modular is that it's a lot cheaper - so why throw away that advantage by going to an expensive modular school? You've already said they send you to the states for hour building, so you can't argue that it's close to home. You could get on a plane to Florida and have all your hour building done in a couple of 2 week package holidays. 2x £500 and about £7000 for 100 hours.. (maybe a couple of grand extra if you play it smart and get your FAA IR as well).
Then all you need to do is come back and do a CPL ~ £6000, multi ~£3000 and an CBIR ~ £7000. All the flying for £25k
