I've had a read throught the Q&A on the OAA website. This is an abysmal deal. You just end up as a Parc contract pilot who has to work for easyjet.

The CTC cadet deal in 2004 was £60k. That was expensive enough. But that was it, all in, no extra crap like "oh by the way, its £210 a week to sleep in one of our dorms and eat in the canteen, and don't worry we will get you a discount on a hotel that we are already in bed with, you lucky, carefully selected, chosen few".

You're telling me that basically the same course I did 6 years ago is now £40k more expensive? Thats £40,000. Thats £100,000+ in total. For the priveledge of being a contract pilot on a random rape roster with easyjet.

Ezy and Oxford are ripping you off. Schemes like this only exist while people are prepared to pay for them. I wouldn't touch it with a big stick covered in .
