Woah there.
I am taking this as a lesson in how what you meant is not what you said.
I am sorry if I offended anyone who is employed by or who has come through the CTC route, that was not my intention. My anger is vented at CTC the organisation.
The organisation that exloits the dreams of many to line their own pockets.
The organisation that is still trying to get people to hand over cash on the basis of a pilot shortage when there are still unemployed experienced pilots from XL, Globespan, BMI etc.
The organisation where one of the senior directors goes into a pub in Lyndhurst with a load of car brochures to brag about whether to get a maserrati or ferrari to several cadets who are worried about not getting placements and the looming potential of bankruptcy etc . He is one of the nastiest and arrogant individuals I have ever met.
Any scheme that gives a penny to the CTC organisation just grates me and the anger that this instills led to the use of that language.
I am also concernced that if easyJet only start offering permanent positions to those who have done a contract, then anyone who joins in the future will have to go through this route, ensuring a plentiful flow of cash from easyjet to CTC.
Again I was not trying to offend anyone who is employed by CTC as we all have to ensure that we are paying our mortgages. I am sorry if this has been the case. That said, anyone I have flown with from CTC has been of the highest standard both as individuals and pilots - just to be clear
