This month’s ‘postcard home’ comes from Rae Hare - one of the first CTC WINGS trainees to commence her flight training at CTC Aviation’s Crew Training Centre - Phoenix, on the CTC WINGS Integrated ATPL Route.

Postcard Home

“Hello from the golden deserts of Arizona!

Flight training with CTC WINGS has been one of the most amazing times of my life. Not only did I get to fly a brand new, state-of-the-art Diamond DA-40 aircraft, I have also explored the whole west coast of America, Canada, and Mexico.

My first solo flight was unforgettable, as was the ‘initiation’ ritual we have started; post – landing I was carried from the plane and hurled into the campus swimming pool by my course mates before my feet even touched the ground!

I chose to train with CTC Aviation because of their iconic partner airlines - the list of airlines I could be working for seems to be growing rapidly! I was actually offered a job with a private jet company and turned that down for the opportunity to go in the CTC Aviation airline placement pool. Their impressive placement record means I am very confident in my airline pilot career prospects.”

thomas cook airlines to employ ctc Wings graduate pilots

The 4 newest members of aircrew will commence line operations in April 2015, with Dean, Joseph and William operating out of East Midlands and Georgie from Newcastle.

Thomas Cook Airlines has once again turned to CTC Aviation to select from the company’s airline placement pool of newly qualified CTC WINGS pilots.

Tim Cheal, General Manager Training for Thomas Cook Airlines confirmed that the first group of four pilots to commence their type rating would be Joseph Cammell, Dean Corbin, William Sharp and Georgie Sweeney.

We caught up with the pilots during the early days of their type rating training at CTC Aviation’s Crew Training Centre – Southampton, UK.

CTC WINGS is our flagship airline pilot career programme turning dreams into exciting careers with more world-class airlines than ever. Characterised by our Training Sponsorship and an unrivalled employment record, our Integrated ATPL ‘whitetail’ Route is no ordinary journey to becoming an airline pilot.

Of his placement, Dean says, “After my journey through training with CTC Aviation, I was only in the airline placement pool for three weeks before securing a permanent seasonal contract with Thomas Cook. I am incredibly excited about starting my career and thankful to CTC Aviation in supporting me the whole of the way.”
