I am from none of these schools, but I applied also. So basically chance is 0,000001%, because they will first look into pools of CTC or Jerez?
Well Atleast have tried there. Good Luck to the ones who got atleast invited .
It is a nice oppertunity to fly for an very nice airline who treats its employees with respect, which is not common anymore now a these days.

Not much.
Received my licenses last Friday. That might be also one of the reasons I did not receive invitation. Because I could not supply them with my License number.
I have 223 hours. 103PIC .

Also received PFO email. Somewhat annoyed I wasted so much time and effort writing ridiculous essay answers for their questions, clearly they were never even glanced at.

Unfortunately in this instance , your application has not been succesful.
Thank you for your interest, and BACF wish you luck with your Job Search.
It could have been worse . Now past chapter for me. NEXT. I don't cry, It is just not meant to be. Maybe in the future again, when I have some more experience.

To be fair to BACF it did state quite clearly the min requirements for this round - i.e. MPA experience of 500hrs / 100 sectors so it's hardly surprising you have been sent a PFO in your case.

You are absolutely right. But I have already a No, and MAYBE,,,, MAYBE get a yes.
I did not expect anything.
The thing is. How to get experience If you never get the chance to get experience? Experienced pilots got their experience from somewhere. So I just tried it. You never know . Otherwise I can never apply on something. .
I Except it and continue. Who knows. Maybe in the future. I am positive.

I haven't received either yet. However there is a post on another thread from a guy who says he has over 6000TT. Turboprop and jet experience. I live in Central London and have 1600hrs (jet) and don't think I will get through. I think they know the exact candidate they are after and the rest of us never stood a chance. I hope I'm proven wrong.

There's a lot of talk of CTC and cadets being recruited but I have heard from the inside that the reason they have the hours/sectors limit is to stop cadets from applying.
Still nothing here but not holding my breath. It seems that luck plays a vital role in the current job market but someone has to get through!
NTR, ex mil, TT 3500

Yeah well the uggliest word there is : EXPERIENCE :.
Good luck to you all guys.
Well some of you have atleast now a job, where they can obtain experience hours. But I agree that BA Cityflyer is a great step up on the pilots social ladder.
So it would have been a nice way for all of us to go.
