Sir Donald,

I think you'll find that they do have a selection process.

They take you through the psycometrics, sim, interview etc. and then assess whether you're the type of person that's likely to succeed on the type rating course and subsequently on the line. If you're not then they'll tell you, and give you the chance to save you the money you would spend/waste otherwise.

It'll cost you (I think £1000ish) but if you're assessed as ok then that's taken off the final total, if not you've saved yourself £22000ish.

Those better in the know can correct the details if necessary, but that's the broad outline.

If the time and the place are right, then you may be offered a contract with them (some have), but as far as I'm aware they don't promise one, it's your call.
