Hi all.
Im aware most of us are searching for those coveted airline cadet programmes, but would anybody be able to enlighten me if there are any Private Jet firms offering 'cadet programmes?'
Purely for my own interest.

Thanks!

Netjets did, in the past, but not anymore. I think it was offered through Oxford, back in the 2006/2007 if I remember well.

I can confirm the above. I remember having the material from OAA on my bedroom wall about it... I could only but dream at that age, pretty much like i'm still doing now haha... :ugh:

The last one with them may have possibly been around 2009ish. Not 100%!

Due to the finanial recession, the NJ cadetships with OAA did not turn out well, other than boosting OAA employment stats. There is a thread on this section of PPRuNe titled 'The First Five Years' suggest you have a look at that for an insight.

Ironically, it was the NetJets cadets who did not get to Indoc in Lisbon who have faired quite well. With their training costs paid for by NetJets they were comparatively debt free. A few have ended up at easyJet.
