Slightly off thread so my apologies for the following:
Can anyone give me an idea of the length of time it would take for someone without any prior experience, for example joining the BA direct-entry cadetship, (or similar), to go from training day 1 to sitting in the right hand seat fully qualified? (Months as opposed to hours logged please).
Reason for question was discussion re. length of time to train a person with no prior experience to validate as an ATCO vs time to train similar person to FO qualification. 'Ball-park' figure would suffice.
Thanks for any help.
