Can anyone shed any light on this?
Seems suprising that it would be advertised on the BALPA members section when you have to have or be training towards a CPL - and they want candidates with a maximum of 30 hrs??

Yes I arsed the spelling up - big deal. Rather than relying on my info get off your @rse and check it out for yourself rather than asking questions.
I'm trying to help- I won't bother in future. I won't be applying anyway. If all you wannabees want to do is sit and argue because of a simple spelling mistake, then so be it.
Do you want your @rses wiped too???????????

Just checked the details out myself. The info is available in the public section also of the Balpa site.
Hey guys, I know things are tough right now with the industry and all but let's not be "dubious". Check it out. It's very genuine.
(Still if half of the wannabees are "dubious" - that's half that might not apply - more chance of us gullable one's getting the job then eh??)
Oh yeah, and the cadetship is with Bae at Jerez.

Has Britannia absorbed all the folks that were due to start courses that were cancelled earlier on? I seem to remember fifteen page topics on the near but yet so far gang. I hope they all got the start!

told you....
I first mentioned this over a month ago so i presume many people have got a head start ion applying so donīt delay.
By the way the hold pool is still going strong with the latest rumour being eary next year for a start date.
Dontīthink i need the bother as the start date for the cadet course is Feb 2003 so they wonīt be on-line until easter 2004.

The most logical assumption is that they want to get you early to shape you into the TUI/Britannia mould.
Maybe if you have a PPL you have already got enough experience to have developed too many bad habit's.
Suits me fine, because I've got less than 30 hours!

So where exactly is the info on this? I've checked out www.Balpa.org in the public section but can't see anything to do with this.

Also, the A-levels. I have 4 of the ******s and a degree but still don't qualify as I did not do maths, physics etc. I would have thought as long as you can pss all the tests....
But, in todays market they could ask 9 a-levels and 12 degress and there would still be applicants. They can pretty much ask for what they want
I must admit, the low flying hrs does seem a bit strange, does anyone know why this is? Is it so that you do not come with any of your own bad habits?

It's called banter 2BBA.
Back to the thread, I think the reason that the criteria are so high is that they are definitely in a buyers market at the moment and shouldn't have any problem filling the course.
Elvis,
I worked hard for those certificates, as I'm sure you will appreciate with your musical connections!!
