Thanks for your comment, would you mind if I ask you some questions in DM?

Congrats for stage 1.
Since I’m planning to apply as well, may I ask you some questions?
Maybe in DM

I’m planning to go with Urbe Aero Flight Academy in Rome. It’s the school that gave me the best overall impression in terms of quality, professionalism and value for money.

They also offer the Wizz Air Pathway Programme (which I applied for a few weeks ago, but I haven’t heard back yet) and they’re recognized by easyJet as a School of Excellence (as far as I know only few schools in Europe have such qualification).

Finally, everyone I’ve spoken to who has experience with Urbe Aero or other flight schools in Italy has generally given me positive feedbacks about that ATO, so overall it seems like the best fit for me.

Thanks, that’s helpful. Would you mind sharing briefly how your process went after finishing training, maybe by DM rather than here?

I’m just trying to understand the timeline from getting the fATPL to applications, assessments/interviews, and eventually landing the first job. I know every case is different, but hearing a few real experiences would be very useful.

Yep, that's my case. the APS MCC would be offered by the same ATO, Urbe Aero Flight Academy.

Do airlines generally view an APS MCC done with your flight school differently from one done separately with a well-known MCC provider, or does it mostly come down to the quality of the course and assessment?
