Hello
I'm interested to know more about Lufthansa sponsorships. Firstly what level of competence do they require in German. Its one thing being able to order a couple of beers quite another to be taught and to understand all your ATPL theory in German.
I approached them last August and they wrote me back promptly asking me to find 160,000DM if my memory serves me right. They didn't make any mention of sponsorship. Given that we are all in the EU together these days shouldn't British nationals be given the same chance as German or any other EU nationals to apply for sponsorship. I say this assuming applicants are fully fluent in the German language.
My level of German is mediocre but it's improving (since I live with a German family) but I'd still brush it up further before applying. If LH are still sponsoring then I think I will drop them a line fairly promptly as it sounds like one of the best career options I have heard for a long time.
