Their motives are actually quite clear: to sit on that big, shiny jet whatever the costs.
If their behaviour will affect mine and everyone else's capability to get a job thanks to $$$ and not personal merit, I have every right and every reason to judge them.
When you prostitute yourself you lower the bar for everyone else in your industry.

Thats life some people can afford stuff other can not and it will effect the way thier life and career will look like.
We the ones that are not privilege to have rich parents can either cry about if ot work hard to feel in the gap.
This program is very expensive but if some one decided this is the best rote for him, i cant judge him, in fact i have the out must respect for him, the same goes for some one who decided to go and do it in a modular rote as cheap as possible...

As much as I have always wanted to be a pilot, I'm not sure comparing flight training or indeed the profession itself to going to Harvard or to Yale is entirely an accurate comparison of what the two different paths provide an individual with. To the general public they may view having a pilot's license as equivalent to anything Harvard or Yale may give you, however to those in the know, they will admit that for the amazing job it is it is nothing out of this world as far as qualifications go. It's more along the lines of an apprenticeship and learning the skills of the trade than being similar to any academic achievements Harvard or Yale will provide an individual with.

it might not provide the same qualifications, and dont mistake im not comparing to job of a pilot to getting an harvard education.
im comparing the idea of paying more for your education in order to get the best chances of been employed after words.
in both case you're paying much more for the level of education while its very much possible to find high level education outside of CTC, OAA harvard or yal you wont get the links and the door that will be opened to you as a new comer to the industry.

ADAPT or Compass
Hi Everyone
Does anyone know what the testing system used for the CAE OAA EasyJet MPL aptitude assessment? I recently passed the Integrated ATPL selection process which I sat the ADAPT test, and was wondering if it's the same.
Thanks!

I've been selected for easyJet MPL route 1 (January intake) however financially the whole thing is falling through. Both parents have been ill for a while, unable to work full time so I've been left with a conditional job offer from easyJet whereby I must attend CTC, but with no means of funding the course! I'm not sure on my best options, do I go modular with the likes of ASW/ Aeros?
I've spoke to a financial adviser and hes not very helpful to be honest, both parents are too young for equity release. I feel my only option is to work myself for 3 months and apply for a mortgage? will a bank lend to a 22 year old wanting 109k for flight training?

I would be in a similar position financially if successful, let us know what easyjet come back with..

I second what A320ECAM has said. The way the website is worded it is not clear whether the loan guarantees apply to any "exceptional" candidates or just the female-only scholarship.

They did a U turn on it ... they probably saw it best hold off and look at the upcoming applicants. I guess there's no need for them to take on such a risk if they have a number of suitable applicants who can fund it themselves anyway.

It doesn't. Who has the deepest pockets is what it's about, and if it wasn't then they'd be offering something along the lines of the BA FPP. They can certainly afford it, more than BA ever could. This is just a matter of company principle.
For the love of flying? hmmmmm ... yeh ... the love is restricted to those with £125,000 though.

As far as I am aware, the only guys who got the loan underwriting applied via easyJet's tagging talent scheme and were internal applicants. We don't openly talk about our financing of the course though, so there may be.

A few guys a younger than 20, ages range between 19 to mid 30s. Don't let age stop you from applying, but be prepared to work harder than you have ever done before.
