I don't know what type of license you would like to go for here. But for an ATPL I would suggest going to Spain or New Zealand. Also try CTC website. They have a scheme where you pay a bond of £68,000 but if you get placed with an airline, the bond will be transferred to the airline and they will pay you back the money monthly. If its just a PPL most flying schools would do it at a price range fo £5000 I believe.

if i were you, i would sugest going into WH Smith and picking up pilot magazine. at the moment, they have a special magazine feature that lists all the training providers in the UK at the moment. try looking for smaller flight establishments, and see how they charge you. Stapleford flight center is very good, good prices and good instructors. you pay by the hour, fuel included, and is timed from airborne time i believe, to brakes on time. i know some other schools start charging from the second you switch on the engine (so if your stuck in a que for the runway, your paying for nothing). some may charge dry, so without fuel, and make you pay for fuel, however i havent seen anybody do that yet. also, be sure to make sure membership fees and landing fees and instruction is all included in the price. if you are going for a career, look at GAPAN and air league for scholarships....my friend got 5 hours of flying free. normally, small airfields are cheaper though, for example, FTOs at biggen hill, southend etc charge quite steep because of fees they need to pay out, like landing or parking. stapleford is private (they own the A/field) so i assume prices are better because they are the primary users of the field, and dont need to pay landing or parking fees.

Can I start medical school in my mid-30s

Can I start medical school in my mid-30s?
Mid 30s, my degree was in English (4 A levels in humanities and languages). Is this going to make it impossible to get in to Med school in the UK? Would I need to gain work experience first?

Not so much "impossible" as "impractical" - being as considering how long you'd be in school with no income, while acquiring debt to pay for your schooling, and factoring in that you won't be done until you're pushing 50 and still have years of debt to pay off.............. the call is one only you can make.

Since American universities' top priority is sports, shouldn't parents send their kids to school in the UK

Since American universities' top priority is sports, shouldn't parents send their kids to school in the UK?
American universities give kids tons of scholarship money not because they study hard or any academic reason, but that they play sports; if you want your kids to learn anything, shouldn't you send your kids here to the UK? We have sports but not tied to college scholarships. I know, you guys want to find dumb kids from the ghettos, give them a football and a diploma so you can sell tickets and t-shirts and pat each other on the back. And all is justified in your country as bringing in money for the school. If American parents really want to give their kids a good education you really need to send them to England. MKC: Not true. The top sporting schools raise their tuition at a higher rate than the ones that don't do so well. J B: Where did you learn your extensive vocabulary?

just because we have sports and give poor kids a chance to a good education with sport sholarships does not mean that we lack in educational values in any way.

The dumb kids from the ghettos are not in college for an education and they do not stop others from getting a good education. Both of my daughters received academic scholarships. Most Americans can not afford the Ivy League Universities. There are few who can afford to send their children to the UK.

What a dream, to attend Oxford for a Doctorate in Fine Literature! If only we could afford it. NOTHING is right with things right now, imo.

I think the elimination of physical education programs in seventh through 12th grade in California Is a travesty. That State lottery funds that started in 1986 had to supplement our schools revenue and are illegally used for other purposes. The spending per pupil has dropped from $15K in 1990 to under 10k now with prisoners costing way over 50K. Kids are burdened with heavy 30 year old books because providing school lockers proved inconvenient by the administration.Fees were raised for college students yet again by our governator who attended one free in 1974, and that's not a tax? I think the sports departments can all piss off!

whats wrong wiht a scholarship based on sprts and a education based on school?
2 :
i think your only seeing part of the story here. im not gonna defend all american schools, cuz they arent all good. but what you arent seeing is that a majority of the athletic scholarships are also tied to academics. they find someone they want based on a sport and then they check into their academics and if they meet a certain level they help them out with the money. most of the time its not only their skill. wouldnt you think parents would rather their kid get their schooling payed for then have to pay WAY extra to send them to another country? i still wouldnt mind going to Englad though! haha

Are you kidding? There is no need to ship kids of to other countries for an education.
