There's so few actual flying hours and mostly just simulator which is a lot less expensive.
I think private school people will have more actual well-rounded overall flying experience from their ATPL if that makes sense. This programme will just give you loads of hours in a 737 and then what other airline are you going to go to after that? Norwegian? That's all I can think of. And Ryanair of course. Those are my concerns anyway 🤷
even at that I’m not sure the likes of Ryanair would take you, given that you have trained towards a different companies SOP’s. Ryanair have a strong line of cadets coming out of AFTA and Bartolini etc.
