Directions to Pioneer House

Hi Phil

Seems pretty straightforward to get to Pioneer House. Best way seems to be by train to East Didsbury station, from there it's about a 5 min walk. If driving, through Didsbury village, past petrol station on left, past large white pub on right, right into Towers Business Park, follow small road to T junction, right, immediately left, Pioneer House is then on the right. Let me know if u want the directions mailed to you.

Hope this helps!

Good luck with the assessment!!

Cheers

CM

Hi SmoothFlier,
Do they also sending out e-mail to unsuccessful candidates as well?
I replied with answers for the questions asked and received no word from them since. I am 33 and CTC scheme is out of my reach unfortunately.

I went modular route and it has cost me about £35,000 in total. Just because you get involved with an airline does not mean you will get a job with them at the end of it especially if you paying for all the training in advance.

All the Aer Lingus cadets from 2001 have a story to tell and if any of them are reading this, may be they would like to tell these so called BA Connect cadets??? what happened to them in 2001.

My advice is go modular and save your self a load of cash. The market is picking up.

Good luck to all which ever way you go.

Hi EGCC4284,

I agree of what you said as well. My target airline to work for is FlyBE as they have base in Belfast. Quite a few flying instructors of our local flying club are working for them. I have get use to living in Belfast and short haul suits me OK and it is closer to home. As far as I know, FlyBE is still taking on modular trained pilots as long as they were trained in a tight schedule without many breaks in between. In my situation at 33 years old, it is good to earn while learn. It is always a different situation for different people and every individual will have to make their own careful decision. Let's hope all together, the airline industry is going to do better in the coming years and all the hard working guys and gals from integrated or modular are going to get their high flying job.

some of us don't have £65000 available to us. When I can go modular and save myself £35000 - which will buy me a new car AND a nice type rating on an aircraft of my choice
If you don't have the £65k then you haven't saved anything. So how can you afford the new car and Type Rating?
