I wouldn't worry too much for CTC guys... For having been at their training center in Nursling I can tell they are very very very busy.
People tend to forget that AB-initio pilot training is only a part of the business. They type rate HUNDREDS of guys every year (recently some 737 TR for Oman Air and Viking).
When you know that they didn't pay A PENNY for the 737 sim, guess how much profit they make of it.
Not to forget the hundreds of cadets going through the A320 TR from whom CTC gets a hell lot of money..

I wouldn't worry too much for the welfare of the business, things are working well for them.

As I said earlier, I found the training absolutely outstanding I simply think the price is for many an obstacle, which shouldn't be (and wasn't back in the days!!)
