I had a look around CTC however I disliked the clinical nature of the whole operation the custom flight bags fancy uniforms, it felt a bit like saying you've made it before you've done anything. I'm in no way having a dig at what is a established and incredibly successful flight school but it seemed more like a factory production line of pilots with no real interest in the individual.
Instead I decided to take a aptitude test independent of my chosen flight schools test and got good feedback from them. Followed by taking the Compass test at the flight school I have elected to go for which I got told I got good results.
Its a flight school local to me which is going to save me some money and I will still be able to do some flying abroad. It was cheaper then going to one of the larger schools.
After doing some further investigation on pilots who have gone to this school I have been told they leave you well equipped and assist you in securing your first job. A 100% placement rate in 2016 is quite an achievement as well as small class sizes make me feel its the correct school for me.
