Airline Schemes - Who, Where, When
Fellow Ppruners,
In this age of Airlines "tagging" or "sponsoring" students through integrated courses I thought it would be very useful to have a rough idea of the schemes offered.
Based on your knowledge and past scheme occurences could we begin by populating a list thus:
1. Which Airline
2. At What FTO
3. When do the applications usually begin (roughly what month)
For example:
1. Flybe
2. FTE
3. February
Also has anyone contacted an airline direct offering them the chance to take you on after an integrated course? Ballsy move but could it / has it ever worked???
Many thanks MFWF

Although the scheme is currently running for it's second time and is now at Stage 2 so it may be some months before it re-opens.

1. Thomsonfly, Flybe, GB Airways, Cityflyer, MEA, Loganair (maybe)
2. FTE
3. Appears to be pretty random. Sometimes they recruit one course at a time, and do several courses spread out, other times they recruit for 2 or 3 courses at the same time. The flybe one will be opening again at the end of July.

Sorry and apologises to hi-jack the thread; but with the recent instructor shortage I find that the majority of the airlines running these approved schemes won't consider interviewing the likes of myself from a modular background for an FO position, but would prefer to take a low hour integrated cadet.
However the schools involved in these schemes are happy to interview
me for an instructors position to teach the ab-initio's on these schemes.
I am not complaining, I just find this is to an extent ironic that an airline won't give me consideration yet I could well end up instructing the same airlines cadets.
