Wonder88 has it. The rescue missions are a big deal.
I wouldn't take any hard work away from you but some people need a little more life experience before starting. Going to uni first can be very very good for you.
Don't give up on the flying dream just because you might not get it right now. The ones who have had to work hard for it are usually the nicest folks to fly with.
I'm not clever, I just worked really hard, that's how I got those grades.

Hi guys, did anyone else receive a phone call from CTC yesterday? I was sent the unfortunate "we don't want you" email following my EasyJet MPL application a few weeks ago and received a phone call from a member of CTC yesterday explaining how my application should have passed and encouraging me to apply again for the other courses. Is this just a publicity stunt on their behalf trying to get me to reapply for one of their schemes or were they being genuine? I just wondered whether anyone else also received this phone call?

I had a feeling this was the case, the advisor made it out as if my application should have passed and would pass on other courses etc, I thought it was just a stunt to try and get me to apply for other courses etc, thanks for you reply.

hey guys! do you know if EZY is still doing the internal sponsorship recruitment for whom is already working in the company(i.e. cabin crew )?
thanks!
thanks!
Good answer if they ask you how dedicated you are then! I'm prepping but just don't know when to stop or if I've done enough.
The selection questions were tough in that 250 limit per question!

Haven't seen any activity on this thread for a fair few days now! Has anyone heard anything new from CTC regarding the current intake for this programme?
I was also wondering how soon after the final selection day easyJet and CTC pick and inform the final few that managed to make the cut from the shortlist. Perhaps someone with some prior experience of the programme/having lurked previous years' threads might be able to shed some light on this?

Thanks!
Now is that "10 days", or "10 working days"?
...can you tell that the wait to hear back is starting to get to me? 
Good luck to everyone that is waiting for the final verdict!

Despite originally applying for the EZY MPL, I am swaying toward doing the Wings course as it's more flexible on completion.
Why on earth would you turn down the opportunity to have a guaranteed job at the end of your course in favour of fighting it out with every other ATPL course graduate from every other training organisation for a job? And I suppose you don't really want that A320 type rating either that the EZY MPL offers.
Personally I think that is bonkers. Don't worry though as there is a long que of other wannabees who would happily step into your place on the easyJet course.

I agree with BVB, your chances of finding employment will only get worse. Don't listen to the marketing figures that CTC boast about on their site, its not as glorious as that. Yeah, you could still end up at EZY after completing the wings course, but you'll need to pay extra for the TR and hope that you're one step above everyone else. You won't get any of the training costs back either, so I'd think VERY carefully about this route if you do choose to take it.

Am I the only one who gets annoyed by people referring to a course (the wings course) upon completion of which you have a CPL, ME-IR, ATPL theory and MCC/JOC certificates as an "ATPL" course? You cannot leave CTC(or any similar ATO) with an ATPL. If the marketing people at any of these schools tell you that you'll get your ATPL with them then it shows how little they know about aviation. Annoys me anyway the amount of people who say(think?) that they'll leave their integrated course with an ATPL. To the poster above as well who thinks the wings course offers more flexibility...think long and hard about it. Whilst you may well do the wings course and get a chance for selection with easyJet, you'll have to pay another substantial amount for the TR. The total cost of being a wings cadet now is a ridiculous amount by anyone's standards. If you have a chance for the MPL course then do the only logical thing and take it.

I thought it was common knowledge that you ultimately leave an integrated flight school with a frozen ATPL? I fail to see what relevance this has to this thread anyway.
Good luck to all those still waiting!
