I was with CTC shortly after it was bought by L3, and like any other takeover, they walk in and strip costs until it barely survives as a functioning business. Shut down of 2 of the major training bases with nothing ready to replace prior, lack of aircraft etc. Took about an additional 18 months to go through training despite my spotless training record, no sickness or anything from my end!

AVOID! Especially with the upcoming take over...

Not going to get into an integrated/modular debate; but Skybourne and FTE Jerez are your best bet, IMO. Leading Edge cadets are experiencing huge delays with a lack of aircraft and instructors, they have nowhere near the capacity as what they have taken on. Don't get drawn in by the fantastic marketing teams!

Best of luck to you and your son
