Thank you
I have been lurking in the PPrune shadows for years now and this is likely my first and last post. I am one of the lucky few who have recently been selected by Flybe and I feel some thank you's are in order to the community here.
A sincere thank you to the cynical experienced operators who hijacked this thread turning it into vs EZY debate and soothsaying that Flybe will soon be doomed (I think we can all agree they have most definitely successfully rebounded).
Your criticisms no doubt scared off a number of naive potential applicants who would have been unfamiliar with the eternally pessimistic mentality you old boys seem to have of "if it's not my airline/not the way I did it, it must be
".
And an equally sincere thank you to the wannabies who turned their nose up at this opportunity of their own accord because they would be landed on a turboprop. That attitude of arrogance and entitlement is one of the reasons airlines are running schemes like this, to have their own screening process to make sure no one like that slips through the net. In my opinion, if you think a first job on a turboprop is beneath you, you don't deserve to be in the air.
I am and will be eternally grateful for this gift. There is no way I would have been able to raise the finance for a full mpl on any of the other schemes so the £23k is going an awful long way for me. And I am excited and grateful as hell to get on any aircraft, probably even moreso for the dash. I'm not thinking about whether it's a marketable TR or not, im just happy to be here right now and see where my career takes me.
To those who applied and unfortunately didn't make it, keep at it. I have been trying for a number of years and have only now got lucky. As long as you have the aptitude and attitude, it's all just a numbers game and yours will be called eventually. It's an emotional roller coaster of rejection but keep doing things to prove your motivation and eventually the pair judging you on the other side of the table will say yes.
