I had an interesting conversation with an NHS acquaintance the other day about the medical field which made comparisons with P2F; apparently (in fact there was a BBC news item on this recently), unsuccessful applicants or those without the necessary grades to enter medical school in the UK are enrolling on courses at Eastern European Universities whereby they can undergo medical training for a fee, with a view to returning to the UK to practice. The feeling being that it was discriminatory that they should be excluded merely on the basis of not being good enough. My friend told me that the NHS wouldn't touch them with a barge pole and in my experience, this principled view is shared by the majority of airlines I know with respect to P2F.
