If CTC were being completly honest with new cadet's they would tell you up front how big the hold pool currently is. However good luck getting that information from the horses mouth. No one actually seems to know how many years you could potentially be waiting for a job. If you ask them all CTC will say is that 'they are still very confident despite the current market conditions' (what ever that means!).

This forum might be 'boring' - however it does provide a balanced and very real view for people who are considering spending a life changing sum of money.

If I was spending 100K I would want all the facts on which to base my decision !?
Repaying £1000 a month for the next 10 years is a big commitment ! And not one I would want to make without the near certainty of a well paid first officer job soon after graduation
