After attending Pilot Careers Live in Dublin and speaking to the representative’s at AFTA, I knew from that moment, AFTA was the right flight school for me. I then joined AFTA’S AB-Initio Ryanair Mentored Programme, were from day one of joining I was made to feel at home and welcomed. AFTA is well known for their high levels of training, in which I greatly benefited from. With instructors who are passionate and knowledgeable, great facilities, young and well maintained fleet as well as a great learning environment, which sets you up for the best possible start to your career in the aviation industry. Furthermore, with Ryanair incorporated SOPs and teachings throughout the course and later on with the Ryanair Mentored APS MCC and the Graduate Development Programme, it truly makes sure that your are prepared for the airline assessment, with the team at AFTA providing you with all the information needed and going beyond the requirements needed, giving you the confidence in securing a job with the airline in which I can proudly say I have. I would like to thank the whole team at AFTA for their support and guidance throughout the course and can undoubtedly say that the whole team go the extra mile and would highly recommend AFTA to anyone who wants to fulfil their dream of becoming a pilot.
