The bond in reality is only 5 years from date of joining the company. The other 13 months are spent doing your CPL/IR.
Like I said. This is a good scheme. No one else in the UK has consistently offered any form of sponsorship. I just think its sad that Flybe have just finished recruiting for a part-sponsorship scheme at FTE to offer another at Cabair with completely different course costs associated. (Yes they have done a part-sponsorship at FTE as well as the MAPS). I know how I'd feel as one of the FTE part-sponsored cadets ... completely ripped off!
