hi guys,
Thanks for the input so far. Can I just confirm for dakronic, sparkyw et al. that this thread is about
The CTC ATP scheme
which is a scheme for frozen ATPL holders looking for their first job
not
The CTC MacAlpine Sponsorship scheme
which is an ab initio sponsorship. There are other threads running on which you can post your questions and comment regarding this.
Anyway, back on the subject, as Tailscrape says, you've got to be in it to win it, even if you do stand to spend a large amount of money possibly achieving nothing. There don't appear to be many other ways in to a job at the moment, and not for the near future, neither.
However you can't criticise people for having a healthy dose of cynicism in this industry: there are too many people out there looking to relieve desperate wannabes of their hard earned cash for little in return.
cheers!
foggy.
