I'm hoping for airline sponsorship but am considering instructor sponsorship route at cabair if that doesn't work out. What kind of salary could I expect from this post??

If you really bust your chops, over a typically poor British weather year, you may earn £10K gross, maybe £11K, but you will need a few months on the Happy Pills after that.
The pay-schemes seem to be cunningly designed to just keep the average human being alive for two years,("Seven" stylee) no more no less.
The ONLY plus is that after two years you will probably have 1500 hours. (in order to make your ATPL, make sure that you have your night instructors ticket and aim to get 100 hours night).
Nothing can prepare you for the experience of trying to teach people the art of flying when most of them don't think about aviation from one weekend to the next.

The best of British old chap !
