Thank you everyone for your fantastic responses. I was quite worried about whether I could apply or not, but I think I will give it a shot and the worst they can say is 'no'.
It is interesting the entry requirements on the CTC Wings website are as follows:
General Entry Standards
You will be between the ages of 18 and 55 on the 1st February 2012
The unrestricted right to live and work in the UK
Fluent in English (verbal and written)
Able to produce a Criminal Record Check (CRC) Basic Disclosure Certificate prior to commencement of training
Able to hold a Class 1 Medical. For information please visit
The UK Civil Aviation Authority
then after this they have an academic standards. Whether this sheds some more light upon whether its more applicable to me or others like..i dont know?
thanks for your responses
