I've seen what the "intense" medical and phsycological exams produce, not all that impressed. Second, My last batch of students left in March to do thier frozen atpl, they'll be back in late september to finish the program. Far less than 2 years. All said and done about one year from nothing to frozen ATPL and JAA CPL and MCL.

I don't know why I need to keep validating myself. Anyway, I looked it up, 5k euro that I mentioned before ended up being a little high, but 4k was possible with 3.5k about average I'd say. I'm sure there are some undesirable jobs but for the most part the work rules and QoL are unquestionably better.

Herman, you mentioned 10 years ago, is it possible things may be a little different now? The company I work for have CFIs over in Europe that are making alot more than what you mentioned for airline pay.
