Over the last year a number of 'cadets' who have successfully completed training have been told they do not meet the 'CTC placement standard'.... essentially after 18 months and paid close to 100k they are in the hold pool and cannot apply to easyjet and the majority of the other partner airlines that CTC supply.
I believe that anything from failing just 4 ground school exams to a weak AQC result results in exclusion from applying to easyjet and pretty much every other airline that comes up. Even if you pass CPL/IR first time etc..
Maybe those cadets should have put in a bit more effort instead of assuming that £100k buys you a job regardless of your ability and skill.
It seems CTC unexpectedly want to keep the standard of cadets going to airlines high.
Unexpectedly, surely you jest...
