Phoenix Crew Training Centre

We opened our new Phoenix Crew Training Centre in April this year and our first CTC WINGS trainee airline pilots are already spreading their wings and flying solo.

A ‘postcard home’ provides a great snapshot of their stay so far in the Grand Canyon state: “…an absolutely beautiful place, with mountains, blue sky and sunshine pretty much every day (and perfect flying conditions).

The part we’ve been waiting for has arrived and we’ve started flying. We are flying brand new Diamond DA40 aircraft, each with a fantastic Garmin 1000 glass cockpit set-up.

It was so good to get airborne. The views are absolutely stunning. Our first lessons provided the basic foundations for flying, working up towards going solo.

We’ve been to see the USA v Mexico soccer match, visited several shopping outlets and we’re planning a weekend trip to Havasu falls in the Grand Canyon! Las Vegas and Los Angeles are roughly 4 hours away and there is one of the biggest aircraft graveyards in the USA located in Tucson a couple of hours away.”

Our CTC Aviation Phoenix training fleet grows bigger every month and we will soon be up to 13 Diamond DA40 and DA42 aircraft to complement our dedicated campus training centre designed to accommodate up to 100 trainees in residence at any one time.

Our next course of 6 CTC WINGS trainees is due to arrive in Phoenix later this month.

Join British Airways direct from CTC WINGS One of the key benefits of training through our CTC WINGS ATPL Integrated Route is that both the syllabus and funding solution are aligned with the BA Future Pilot Programme. This means that if BA ever has a need to ‘top-up’ the number of FPP graduates with additional cadet pilots, our CTC WINGS graduates can achieve this for the airline easily and seamlessly. In fact, CTC WINGS is the only Route available where it is possible for you to do this – another unique airline pilot career opportunity from CTC Aviation.

FPP IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

BA is initially seeking an extra five cadet pilots from CTC WINGS to join them immediately and there is further need anticipated later in the year.

RESOURCING

Launched in 2012, the pioneering British Airways Future Pilot Programme (FPP) will enable up to 500 aspiring airline pilots (over five years) to achieve their career ambition to fly for British Airways.
