Hi everyone,
I'm considering starting my pilot training and have been researching various flight schools in Europe. One that stands out is
FTE Jerez in Spain, but I’m trying to determine if it’s the right choice for me and if I have what it takes to get in.
A few things I’m wondering about
:
- Reputation and Training Quality:
- I understand is one of the best fly schools, is it true?
- Does their training program truly prepare cadets for airline operations, or is it more theoretical? I believe you get less flying hours compared to other schools
- Job Prospects After Graduation:
- Are their graduates highly sought after in the industry?
- How strong are their airline connections (I know they train for BAW, Ryanair, etc.)?
- Admission Process:
- How tough is it to get into FTE Jerez?
- What is the selection process like? Is it similar to applying for an airline-sponsored program, with psychometric tests, interviews, and aptitude checks?
- Self-Funded vs Sponsored:
- For those who go the self-funded route, is the cost worth it considering the potential return on investment?
- Does FTE Jerez provide solid career support for self-funded students, or do they focus more on airline-sponsored cadets?
I’d love to hear from anyone who’s trained at FTE Jerez or has insights into their programs. Any advice on what to consider or questions to ask before committing to this path would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for your help! 😊
