Applying for CTC, OAA or FTE after sixth form?
Hi everyone,
This is my first post here and certainly not the last! I am starting to get active here and check in on these forums as an aspiring airline pilot.
I am currently 17 years of age, and have attended international schools my whole life, doing IGCSEs (equivalent to GCSEs I'm guessing) and currently in the last year of the IB Diploma programme with a predicted of 32 points. Financing the training will not be an issue.
I have longed ever since I was 4-5 years old to become an airline pilot and I am hoping to commence training right after IB, and I am hungry to do well in assessments to get into a good flight school.
However, I am beginning to doubt whether CTC or OAA as such would accept an 18 year old onto their programmes, so as to say I would be employed when I'm 20-21 years old? Even despite the minimum age to commence training is 18 years old, I see many testimonies of cadets being a lot older.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Cheers,
Daniel
