All the recent adverts (last 18 months) for Flight Test Engineer jobs in the UK have asked for a graduate of one of the recognised Flight Test Schools (ETPS, NTPS, etc). Combined Engineering and Flying experience has got me to the interview stage on a couple of occasions. It seems these days it is near impossible to get FTE without being a "full time course graduate". Am I correct in thinking EASA has dropped the FTE licensing requirements and FTE can be still be done on the basis of company approvals?
