I have just started my PPL and am currently sorting out my medical.....better to find out now if I'm up to the job!
I've done a bit of research on the routes to the ATPL with a job and my conclusion so far is if possible, to go for the integrated approach. The ultimate would be sponsorship included, but I guess this is everyone's dream.
The only scheme I've seen so far is BA, which I understand is extremely tough to get on. What suggestions do people have?
Also, is it worth me stumping up for a Class 1 medical to start with, not only to ensure I am fit to fly commercially, but to demonstate some commitment to prospective airlines?
How long normally do you have to wait before going to Gatwick once you've rung them?
