Today, FTE’s assessors are at Waterside, BA’s HQ, conducting the selection tests for BA’s Speedbird Pilot Academy fully sponsored programme. We wish the best of luck to all candidates.

The British Airways’ Speedbird Pilot Academy is a programme that offers fully-funded flight training for up to 100 candidates each year, removing the barrier of initial training costs and making a career in aviation more accessible. Integrated flight training courses are full-time and last 18-24 months. Successful candidates will join as pilots with British Airways. British Airways will open again a process next year.
