To attempt to bring some focus back toward what this thread was supposed to be for, I thought I would post a list of useful sites I put together in preperation for my interview. I hope any prospective CTC applicants find this useful, it certainly helped see me through phase 3(which now forms the final selection stage).

A couple of caveats to the links below, please note firstly that some links may no longer work due to the list being 7 months old, and secondly the links to documents may not provide you with the latest information, especially when relating to EU/JAR Ops and other regulations.

As a final note, some partner airlines have been added, most notably Easyjet Swiss/Suisse, citijet etc, so with this and the above points taken into consideration, do not rely on this list to cover everything, do the research!
