I spoke to FTE this evening and they informed me that BACF have not got back to them with the names of people they would like to see in stage 4, so I don't understand how lonewolf has been informed?

-LoneWolf- 23rd Jul 2008 08:17

I have no idea... I have an e-mail from BA CityFlyer in my inbox, sent to me last Thursday, informing me that I have been put through to phase 4 with details of when and where it will take place. Maybe it's because I already have a confirmed place on the October course at FTE? Your guess is as good as mine.

SefonSA 23rd Jul 2008 20:31

Congratulations Lonewolf when I looked at your history after your post I thought that was the case - please keep us updated. But I am surprised (not completely!) no one else from phase 3 interviews has heard anything yet. Maybe not all 18+ on PPrune?

Goodluck to all - patience is a virtue!

jonty797 23rd Jul 2008 20:36

Hope I'm not the bearer of bad news - afraid I got Phase 4 confirmation at the same time as LoneWolf. Hope you guys hear something soon.

Well done you 2. Ill give them a ring tomorrow again and find out what is going on, as its only a week away now!! good luck everyone...

owenoundle 23rd Jul 2008 22:23

Still haven't heard anything good or bad! I will call FTE Monday - Ever the optimist. Eager to still get on the October course with or with out City Flyer.

Congratulations & good luck Jonty797

Hi there chaps,

I've been reading this post with interest I'm currently through to Phase 4 (got the e-mail last week). I'm up for interview tomorrow (29th July). To say the lest the ol' nerves are going bonkers!

Anyway, good luck to anyone else through to P4, and keep up the gossip!

SefonSA 1st Aug 2008 13:23

Hello fellow applicants

Got the official rejection email, telephoned today & found out it was some of the written tests that let me down. Not surprised I only had 4 days to prepare & 12 years since maths class!

Happy to know the pilat & reasoning were good will definetly be applying for the next scheme...

Hope all your stage 4 interviews went well look forward to hearing what happened.

Goodluck Stu

Just had the call and I wasn't successful. I'm gutted, but it won't stop me achieving what I want eventually.

Congratulations to those who were successful and I'll see you in October!

Mikebert4 6th Aug 2008 17:18

I -just- missed the call (was in a meeting) and haven't been able to get in touch with Carmen from FTE since then...

Still, whilst I'm on tenter-hooks, best of luck to you all, and I'll let you know the outcome when I find out (as soon as I can call FTE tomorrow!).

Pebsdave 6th Aug 2008 22:17

Hey guys, was also unsuccessful in stage 4. Not sure why thought it was a strong group all in all. Still onwards and upwards all the best guys and gals

Hey chaps,

Good news for me :D they accepted me and I start at jerez on the 13th of October. Just about sufficent time to panic about getting the finance sorted! I've been on edge ever since I missed the call last wednesday and it's great to finally know, and even better to have been successful

Now I've got to go back to work and act normally for a few hours (well, as normally as I ever act). The grin might be a bit tell-tale though, can anyone think of an excuse?

My consolodations to those of us that didn't make it through stage 4, but don't any of you give up. I've been through 3 rejections before I applyed to BA CityFlyer and each time wondered if I'd ever get on a scheme like this. If you've got through to Phase 4, you've a place in the industry says I. So don't go giving up!

Mike out.

jonty797 12th Aug 2008 12:30

Many congrats Mike, glad you got it. Unfortunately, I was unsuccessful as well but getting through to Phase 4 wasn't bad for a first attempt and I will keep trying! Does anyone know which airlines are likely to be recruiting again through FTE and when?

Mikebert4 13th Aug 2008 12:39

The list of airlines that recruit from FTE is quite a long one, but from that list there are but a few who run mentorship schemes through FTE:

Flybe
City Flyer
ThompsonFly
CityJet

(I may have missed some here)

I've been through the Flybe selection to Phase 4, and unfortunately fell down on the interview (they required a lot more knowledge of the kind of lives pilots lead and about the aircraft than CityFlyer or NetJets did). I'm afraid ThompsonFly and CityJet are unknown quantities to me selectio-wise.

I'd say you'd do best with Flybe (providing you like the aircraft + airline), the selection is almost question-for-question the same as CityFlyer's, until you get to P4.

Best of Luck!

Well done everyone who got through, might see you about whenever you filter through to the frontline!:ok:

Hey guys, joining this thread a little late! I have got my Interview on the 9th - 10th of September. I believe its the 4th and final stage.

I am provisionally on the course that starts on the 7th November. Is anyone else heading to Jerez for the interview on these dates and is anyone going to be on the November course?

Cheers

ca2bb 19th Aug 2008 07:01

Hi konkrete,

I thought the FTE/BA Cityflyer selection is finished, and stage 4 interviews have come and gone!

I didn't get through to stage 4, but am heading out to Jerez for an interview on 10th September, do you know if there are any spaces left for November?

Aaron

konkrete 19th Aug 2008 07:06

My November course is just the standard self-funded course. I have no idea if there are places left.

James
