Try this

That link should take you to the BALPA "how to become a Pilot" page.

Here it is, click on me! (http://www.pprune.org/interviews-jobs-sponsorship/251490-archive-reference-threads-posting-guidelines-read-before-you-post-question.html) Also, do a lot of research before you even think about spending any money.

Top of the page. Yellow taskbar. Sixth option from the left, 'Search'. Use that and read old threads and I'll guarantee you that every question you've asked, can think of asking and will ask on the subject have been asked and answered before, some of them many times.

One of the preferred traits in a pilot is self motivation. No time like the present to start practising. A surefire way to get people here offside is to appear to want spoonfeeding. A surefire way to get them to help you is to show you've made the effort.

See you back here when your eyes dry out from reading ;)



Good luck.
