Integrated Flight Deck Programmes
If you want to complete your training in under 2 years and can access the funds to pay £87,950 over 18 months then this is absolutely the right option for you.
The quicker you can complete your training, the quicker you can apply for roles within airlines and start work as a First Officer. Students that choose this route are typically able to fund this with finance from parents, inheritance, secured loans – or a combination of the above.
With FTA you pay for your course in equal instalments. For example, if you were to enrol on FTA's 2021 Integrated Flight Deck Programme today, you would pay an initial payment of £10, 000 and the remaining balance over 18 months.
The course fee includes all your airport fees, uniform, eBooks, instruction, tests and flight time. The only items you need to fund separately are any repeated phases, and tests. Your accommodation is funded by you too, although support is given to find the right arrangement for you whether it’s a student house, hotel, hosted family or apartment. If integrated training is not viable for you, you can elect to study on a modular basis and it is practical.Posted in: modular;, integrated pilot training, modular pilot training, cost of pilot training, why be a pilot
