Although the lack of information coming from CTC does not look entirely promising for ATPer's, it is worth making a couple of points:
But let's say that every month they add 10 Wings cadets in the pool, and are capable of 12 type rating a month
Firstly the wings cadets coming out of training now, started their courses in the first half of 2010. The figure of 10 cadets a month assumes that these courses were running full and the fact is they weren't. Even courses at the start of this year are running below capacity.
Secondly from a CTC press release in Nov 2010.
'This year new cadet placements have hit a record breaking 292 for 2010 alone.' That figure would imply that CTCs type rating training capacity is at least 24 cadets a month.
Not exactly the news some people are hoping for but some facts to cling on to
