I know this has been discussed in depth before but I find it really frustrating that guys can practically buy their way into a job.

This news is a great blow to my hopes.

Any comments?

Rumour Control says Monarch are talking to CTC about 6 cadets for Autumn. Britannia rumoured to be looking at 12 MAYBE 24 for October/November courses.

Perhaps CTC was the place to be...

Bronzeage- FI course= aprox £5k
CTC AQC= aprox £5k
Applying the 6p's during CPL/IR training could possibly negate
the contingency fund and allow the above option; horses for couses.
If you're really talking about paying for jobs, then the above pales against a certain low cost operators"Farther Ted" policies!

I can't help but wonder if the story here is that with no recruitment in the charters for a year or so all the existing FO's are getting up towards potential command hours (even though there are no command vacancies) so when the vacancies do open up the airlines need FO's that are prepared to spend a goodly amount of time in the right seat, i.e. people who will take a long time to reach the minimum hours requirement.

Just a thought

Wysiwyg,

I guess there is a little truth in that, however I think it more likely that Brits have been offered a great deal by their former chief trainer.....

CTC is a known quantity, and has a good reputation.
