It appears to be one of the only reputable ways into the RHS of a jet for low houred guys and girls.
I hope thats said tongue in cheek...
CTC are the reason this industry is ****** up, they started the 'pay for type rating' nonsense (ok bmi started it, but at least they are an employer), only rich kids could go down the CTC Slave programe... and they continue I guess to attract that type of well heeled individual. I have known 1 chap who went on the CTC thing... son of a rich airfield owner for ****** sake...
Sorry about not being my usual reserved self... its just that this industry which I once loved... is being screwed over by management... aided by rich wannabes with not one moral fibre in their spineless bodies...
