Did your chosen FTO work for you?
Interested in hearing from everyone who has completed their JAA CPL/ME/IR.
Let me know where you went, who your now working for, which aircraft and how long it took from training completion to right hand seat.
Nice!!!

Ok, I will start.......
Oxford Aviation Training. Finished their integrated course in July 07.
Had 2 interviews organised through them. A BA one part way through my IR and an interview with bmi mainline about a month after finishing MCC/JOT. bmi sim check passed and now in the hold pool for bmi. Not yet in that right hand seat because of happenings within bmi, but that’s a different story.
Yep, OAT worked for me!

In your opinion,do you think training at PAT contributed to securing your 1st job?
Did they provide any assistance in job hunting after training?
They are top of my list for the CPL/ME/IR at the moment.
Just out of interest,which TP was it?
nice!

Worked for me too. Graduated from OAT in April and was fortunate to have a BA interview mid-way through the IR in Jan. Subsequently managed to arrange myself an interview with bmi mainline just before finishing the course. I’m now in a very similar situation to Stue and treading water in the bmi pool.

No, as a modular student that wasn't what I paid them to do nor did I ever expect them to. They provided VERY high quality training. I learn't alot and they contributed to my skills which enabled me to gain my first job! I.e. Success at a sim ride.
You won't go wrong mate! The most important thing I found was that despite the stress levels, I loved every minute of it and find myself in Bournemouth every year with my mate who I trained with reflecting on it! That and beer...
