PLEASE READ...
This is a genuine post, I am in no way related to Astraeus other than I completed a Type rating in March with them on the B737.
Less than 8 months on, at this precise moment im sat in SkyEuropes briefing room with an hour to go before I report for my line check on the B737 to Barcalona.
Myself and my course alone are proof that the SSTR scheme works especially with the standard of training acheived at Astraeus. I can comment having seen over the last 2 months the standard from some other TRTO's around europe.
What else can I say apart from there was 16 of us on our course, of which 15 are now flying presently with such airlines as
SkyEurope ( myself and 2 other guys from Ast )
Excel,
Jet2,
Astraeus,
Air Asia,
BmiBaby,
Ryanair - they'd have you think this isnt true, but at this time I know of 5 mates currently online with Ryanair....
Cheers to all the TRI's, TRE's and groundschool staff at AEU and Bond.
Everyone have a excellent Xmas and good luck with the new year... especially if your looking for work.
