A message from Captain Ian Baston, Chief Pilot
Welcome to the Partially Sponsored Airline Pilot Scheme and MPL course run in conjunction with Flybe, one of Europe’s leading regional airlines. I am Captain Ian Baston, Chief Pilot, charged by the airline to manage the recruitment of flight deck crews. The Partially Sponsored scheme has been developed with our training partner, Flight Training Europe, to provide a source of quality pre-selected pilots to crew our Bombardier Q400 aircraft. You will undertake training under the Multi-crew Pilots Licence (MPL) route to the right hand seat of a Flybe Q400. This course has been specifically designed to teach you all of the key elements necessary for you to successfully transition to a Flybe flightdeck.
During your training in Jerez, your progress will be mentored throughout the course by the Flybe Liaison Pilot, First Officer David Howie. As the final phase of this course, students will undergo a fully Flybe funded Q400 Type Rating course.
In addition to the support outlined in the above paragraph, those successful for the Partially Sponsored Airline Scheme will receive an additional sponsorship from Flybe of GBP £19,800.00, repayable out of salary over the first five years of employment.
Selection will follow the same format and battery of tests as in previous Flybe/FTE schemes. The top six candidates will be offered positions on the course to commence training at Jerez on 1st of July 2011.
The prospects within the airline for pilot progression are excellent and allow for faster than average progress into the Commander’s seat.
May I take this opportunity to wish you every success with your application and the selection process.

Schemes Description
The Partially Sponsored Airline Pilot Scheme is well established as a Flybe/FTE cooperative program for low hour entry to Flybe. This is a great opportunity for people who want to be involved in working in a fast paced, hi-tech airline that offers significant opportunities and benefits to its staff.
Flybe operate the Bombardier Dash 8 Q400 aircraft, which is an extraordinarily modern technology turboprop. The Q400 offers comfort for up to 78 passengers with a maximum cruise speed of 370 kts. Its combination of speed, comfort and fuel economy allows it to compete effectively with any jet on an airline route less than 500 miles (800 km).
Candidate Profile
We are looking for high calibre, motivated individuals who are keen to work for one of Europe’s largest regional airlines.
To be eligible for this scheme you must have a minimum of 2 A-Level passes, Grade C or above (or equivalent), and have 5 GSCE passes including Maths, English and a Science subject at Grade C or above, as well as the right to live and work in the UK.
Student Involvement
If successful you will have to fund FTE’s MPL programme.
The price for this course is GBP79,000. Candidates may elect to pay in either Euros or Sterling. Please contact FTE if you would like details of the Euro price.
The price is inclusive of the following:
Accommodation and Full Board
Full uniform (except shoes)
1st attempt, ground and flying JAR exams
Renewal of the JAA Class One Medical
All training material
Landing and navigation fees
Free Internet access
No additional accommodation charge in the unlikely event of delay in training due to adverse weather
VAT
FTE can assist with advice on finance options.
Benefit to the student
Throughout the training, the Flybe student’s performance will not only be monitored by FTE’s training team, but there will also be an oversight by Flybe’s assigned liaison Pilot.
If successful throughout the training at FTE no further selection will be required by Flybe and you will flow straight into a Q400 type rating course as a part of the MPL training.
Selection Timescales and Travel
Candidates will be able to apply from the 7-20th March 2011 inclusive. Should you meet initial criteria you will be forwarded, via email, a series of questions, which must be returned within the specified period.
Should your application be successful in progressing to the next phase you will be required to travel, at your own expense, to Flybe’s headquarters at Exeter. Currently this one day selection phase is expected to take place between the 9th–12th April inclusive.
The final element of the selection process will be a Flybe airline interview. This will, once again, take place in Exeter between the 3rd and 5th May inclusive.
Feedback
Throughout the selection process, you will be advised as to whether or not your application has been progressed to the next stage. However, due to the large number of applications, neither Flybe nor Flight Training Europe will be in a position to give individual detailed feedback on your performance.
