Don't know, but they look like a jolly bunch to me even with $120k in debt. lol
Ask yourself would you take the same risk if flybe, tfly, ba CE etc offered you a place?
My answer : YES

To answer my own question, a wee birdie told me that all of the recent graduate MAPS students are currently completing their JOC course and will be starting their Q400 type rating on 2nd July, the next batch of graduates are due to start type ratings on the Embraer 145 in august. Its pretty reassuring that the airlines do follow through on these tagged schemes.

New Flybe scheme at FTE
Just found out that there will be another Flybe tagged scheme with FTE which is going to be advertised at the end of July. This time they are looking for 4 courses of 6 students! FTE should just rename themselves to Flybe flight school lol

well there is no such thing as a guaranteed job in this industry!! And I wont be in debt up to the hilt!!
Plus having spoke to a few friends who are on the line, the integrated lot are a far higher risk and cant be left alone to think for themselves. Spoon feeding stops on the line, you have to think for yourself!

Its a pretty well known fact that generally most airlines prefer integrated (thats not to say they dont like modular and there may be some exceptions). It does cost more but is more organised and focused so the student has to weigh up the pro's and cons and decide which route they would prefer to take. It does not mean that the students are spoon fed at all and I am pretty sure we can think for ourselves just as much as the modular people. I know that I sat down many times and analysed each route and decided myself thatintegrated is the way to go for me. I decided the extra job likely hood that integrated schools have a record of warrants the the extra risk involved with cost (loans), especially if I could get accepted to a tagged scheme which I did. Personally i think that if you can gain access to the funds for integrated through loans, take it.

I am ex integrated being on the line for more then 3 years and I think I can think for myself
One thing you will realize once in an airline enviroment is that nobody cares if you did integrated or modular...nobody knows and nobody ask.
If some of modular people are particularly sensitive about the topic they should just remeber that they made the choice of how to approach aviation.
anyway once you got your hours up and your licence become green NOBODY CARES!
congratulations to the guys that start on the 2nd....you are gonna love it!...and flybe is a good company enjoy it!

g1344304, it seems that you might be a bit uncertain of your "fact."
I agree with pilotarosa, the difference between modular and integrated is small but accentuated by the large flight schools to serve their own financial interests. A solid, consistent training record and a little determination in finding that first job are the more important.
