British Airways City Flyer selects FTEJerez to train their future MPL pilots.

Flight Training Europe (FTEJerez) is delighted to announce that BACityflyer has selected FTEJerez to launch their Multi-Crew Pilot Licence (MPL) program to train their future pilots.

FTEJerez’s CEO declared “This is a very important milestone for FTEJerez and BACityflyer. FTEJerez was the first organization approved to conduct MPL by the UK CAA in 2009, and after running 5 courses we can say the program has proven to be a huge success. BACityFlyer will be the second airline training under this system with us, and I am confident that we will exceed their expectations.”

Flight Training Manager, Steve Cook from BA CityFlyer commented “We are delighted to be launching our MPL scheme with FTEJerez. Both companies have a longstanding relationship with each other. This partnership will result in well motivated, highly trained graduates to fly our modern fleet of Embraer Aircraft.”

BACityflyer are now recruiting cadets for the MPL course to commence training at FTEJerez in October 2012. Successful candidates will train in Jerez for the first 54 weeks before moving on to the Embraer type rating training with BACityflyer in the UK.

For many years now FTEJerez has been exclusively chosen as the training provider for BACityflyer. This latest training programme extends this longstanding relationship which has resulted in a large number of FTE graduates flying with the airline.
