This info is about 12 months out of date but a mate gave me a copy of a memo from GECAT to Cabair that was up on their notice board. Cutting to the chase at the back of the marketing spin about the SSTR there was a table of the courses for that year - 737, airbus. Alongside each course a Cabair instructor had noted various airlines - Mytravel, BMI etc based on a meeting with one of the training captains at GECAT. The story being that from what I saw and read everyone had been placed, some even before they had completed the type rating. Talking to mates that have been down the SSTR route GECAT is one of the market leaders and definitely not a production line like so many of the cheaper alternatives.
