Haha yeah I think you and dj made me temporarily deaf that afternoon! As has already been said, they will try to call you the same day. I'm glad they didn't call while I was driving, chances were that I would have crashed :ok:

Jenny149 7th May 2008 15:02

Thanks for that!! I passed my phase 3 yesterday and I am booked in for phase 4 on the 15th May:ok:

Vbells 7th May 2008 15:27

I have Phase 4 on 15 May too - see you there :)

Kerosine 7th May 2008 15:40

Remember to keep meet dates etc to the social thread, mods will have a fit :ok:

Assuming it's an 'average' group size, does anyone know what the latest is you are likely to finish on Phase 4? I need a rough idea for when to book a return train ticket; I've emailed CTC but nothing yet!

Also, how many were there on your Phase 4?

woskam 7th May 2008 15:57

Kerosine - all depends what time you're booked in for. I was asked to arrive for 11am and was told we'd all be done by 3pm. However, I asked if I could do my sim ride first and was in a taxi back to the train station by 1:15.

Also, there were three of us in my group, and I believe this is a fairly standard number.

ANyone knows how does it works when you complete the enrollment?..they say you have to deposit £60k and when you finish they will give them back??
IS it that correct?

You deposit a 60k cash bond as well as 5k for your foundation course. At the end of the training CTC will give you 30k of this back and once assigned to an airline they will pay it off monthly.
Suggest you go through the paperwork again and read it properly if you're expecting to get 30k cash-back at the end of the course fella, because otherwise you're going to be sorely disappointed....

Kerosine 7th May 2008 16:40

CTC will 'secure' £30,000. This means if you fail the course early on, CTC will pay up to £30,000 of the remaining money owed to the flying school. This means you will be liable for the other £30,000 of debt from the time you sign the papers in the bank.

If you fail later on in the course when CTC deemed you to have had your 60 grands worth, they could ask for the other 30K.

The £60K loan, plus any other loan is, to be paid back, in full, with interest, over a 7 year period after employment.

Your salary upon starting is reduced by £1000 per month to pay back your loan from source.

£12K x 7 years = £84K*

Remember this is not a sponsored course; you are offered preferential financial arrangments with very strong chance of employment!

*edit: I'm sure it's not this figure to the penny but a rough estimate

poss 7th May 2008 18:04

Yes the above is what I meant, not that CTC directly give you 30k... that would be rather silly. Sorry work sidetracked me and I very poorly worded explanation - busy day lol. :ugh:

Kerosine 7th May 2008 22:50

Poss if you're anything like me your head will be swimming in information:ok:

If I DO pass stage 4, I'm going to put together a mother load of useful and up to date information. Bit more than what's on the FAQss on CTC's site at least, I think it's important to make sure information is easily available.

That being said if I don't get in you can all go to hell :ok: lol

Then look harder. The answers are all in here. But as a starter for ten, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division (whole numbers and decimals). That's pretty much it; no more, no less.

Accommodation near Nursling
 
Chelsce,

Thank you for your answer. Yes, I received a pdf file attached to the mail, but there are no accommodations recommended for Nursling so I sent CTC an email asking for suggestions and got the following ones:

Lyndhurst Park Hotel (£54 B&B -this is approximately twenty minutes by taxi away)
Dibden Manor (£45 B&B - approximately fifteen minutes by taxi)

I am wondering if anyone knows about any cheaper place to stay for one night?

Cheers


Streety 8th May 2008 13:41

The Holiday Inn Southampton West on the roundabout off J1 of the M271 might be cheaper. It's 2 mins drive from the Nursing Training Centre.

Edit:

Just looked it up - £75 for the night of the 21st May, so might actually be cheaper to stay a bit further afield and get the taxi instead.

Kerosine 8th May 2008 13:45

There aren't any suggested for Nursling. I received and email from CTC saying there's a travel lodge or something quite close for £65.

I'm looking for a little B&B/Guesthouse.. Will let you know Mattias.

belongins 8th May 2008 15:30

@Chelsce
"u should have this information when u get the booking, usually comes as some form of pdf file that attaches to the info email, i didnt stay anywhere so cant advise further then that"

All I got is to bring is the following?
No information regarding what will actually happen on the day or what to prep for.....

You are required to bring with you to the assessment day:

- all academic qualification certificates listed on your application. These must be the original copies of the certificates. All certificates will be checked during your assessment day and incorrectly recorded grades on your application may result in failure to pass to the next phase of selection. Please take all certificates out of folders, wallets or frames prior to handing them in on arrival.

You also need to ensure that you bring your:

- Passport
- Basic Disclosure (if you hold one)
- Class 1 medical certificate(if you hold one)
- A Passport size photo


What is a 'basic disclosure?'

Streety 8th May 2008 15:33

Basic Disclosure is a Criminal Record Check to show CTC that you'll be able to obtain an airside pass when you complete training.
