City University offer Bsc (Hons) in Air Transport Operations. The course is run in conjunction with one of the air training schools. OATS & Cabair. 2 yrs at the Uni and one year for the integrated course. Total of 3yrs. The obviouse advantage of this scheme is the degree. It costs around 12k for the degree and whatever the cost of the Ab-Initio.

Now the question: is it worth going for the degree course or spending the extra 12k to get a Flight Instructor's licence in order to build hours?

Thanks for your input!

Not a recommendation but more what I would do in your position - get the FI rating - that would leave you ~£6,000 out of your £12,000 in your pocket to live on whilst instructing.

Just a thought.
