I have a dilemma. I could either try to enter the FFP, Pursue a Master degree or If I'm lucky be selected to a flight school in my home country which is free of charge. I still want to send my application for the FFP but will this mean that I've wasted one of my 3 attempts even if I don't attend any selection?

I couldn't find this answer on their website or anywhere else on the forum, I apologize if such a question already exists.

Thanks!

@Ponny10

If you get invited to an interview stage and elect not to go then I'm not sure if they will ever let you apply again unless due to unforeseen circumstances.

But if you are meaning what happens if you do not get selected this time around, then yes you would lose an application chance. However, I'm not sure how much longer this programme will be running so I would say apply anyways.

Better hurry, less than 24 hours left....

@Ponny10. I had a similar situation when applying for the Virgin scheme last year; I was fortunate to be selected for stage 2 but was unable to attend due to work commitments. I emailed them explaining my situation and they were understanding. Needless to say I was disappointed however.

Good luck to all applying for the BA scheme. Hopefully see some of you at stage 2s.

Unhappy

I have managed to log back in to my application. However it is now saying **NEVER SUBMITTED** and I cannot edit anything. Any advice anyone?

Suggest you call them asap this morning. They should be able to re-open your application to allow you to finish and submit it before 12:00 today.

People have contacted CTC via social media so around 8am-9am the alarm will be raised to BA.
Hope you all get it sorted. Still waiting for my response, fingers crossed it comes soon.

My application has also re-opened. I completed every section but before I could click submit I think the page has gone down? It's continually stuck on a loading page. I've tried ringing BA Resourcing but it's just an answer machine.

CTC have confirmed that the deadline will be extended until at least midnight tonight due technical difficulties on their website.

Source: CTC Facebook page

EDIT: It now appears the deadline has been extended to 1159hrs on the 11th.

Update on payment issues with FTE:

I retried the link provided in the original e-mail this morning and got through. I would assume therefore that the issue have been fixed but if you're still having trouble, they are aware of it and are "currently doing our very best to solve it as soon as possible"

Note that payment will be in euros, (€312 at the time I paid) so if you are able to use an international transfer service you could save yourself a few £s by avoiding the bank's ludicrous exchange rates and charges!

didn't bother applying this time, a lifetime of Aerotoxic fumes has put me off this career

aerotoxic syndrome doesn't appeal to me like it once did

junior jetset, I still believe that this initiative provides by far the best opportunity to enthusiasts.
