British Airways (BA) has launched its largest pilot recruitment campaign in more than a decade as it gears up for an influx of new equipment into its fleet.
The carrier plans to increase its current 3,200 strong pilot force by more than 25% by 2016.
Most of these positions will be based at Gatwick and Heathrow. Loans will be available to fund some training.
Costs a fortune to train a as a pilot.
Then you get your first job at a not exciting salary.
You have the loans to pay off so you have to live in cheaper property a long way from your job base Heathrow/ Gatwick . You add x hours commuting to your flying time.

Which is all extremely heavily regulated, and any additional travel over a one-hour commute is factored in to shorter rostered and/or increased rest periods. Which your employers, in turn, would not accept.
