CTC playing at it?
This is the problem. Apparently there is a very real lack of understanding by potential students regarding the structure of the course & ultimately the qualification they obtain. Most FTO's are not connected to a TRTO hence can't offer type rating training (increasingly more valuable to secure that first job). The comments regarding suitablility of training device for MCC are also largely unimportant as an MCC certificate is not a type rating.
The large FTO's of this world might have the best customer service staff in the world but at the end of the day, can they take the customer from zero hours to type rating completion? Most can't. It's a bit like buying a Mercedes without an engine.
