Condor restarts pilot training programme

Condor is focusing on promoting young talent in the cockpit: As part of the Condor Ab Initio Program (CAP), Germany's most popular leisure airline is offering pilot training in cooperation with the TFC Käufer flight school in Essen for the seventh time this year. Flight students have the opportunity to acquire the Multi Crew Pilot Licence (MPL) including a type rating.

After successful completion of the application process, the up to 16 participants go through a theoretical and practical phase during the two-year training. In addition, the training includes the type rating, i.e. the sample training, in this case for the aircraft type Airbus A320.

"We are delighted that with the resumption of the Condor Ab Initio programme, we can once again offer young talents the opportunity to find their way directly into the cockpit. We are particularly proud of the fact that so far all Condor graduates have been taken on as an aviation employee," says Christian Schmitt, COO and Accountable Manager of Condor.

Interested applicants have the opportunity to inform themselves online on www.career.aero about the program or to apply directly via the portal.

The MPL professional pilot license to be acquired was introduced by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in 2006 and has been officially anchored by the German Federal Aviation Authority (LBA) since 2009. In addition to the Ab Initio program, Condor also offers pilots who have a valid professional pilot license an entry as a first officer (ready entry). Application documents for this position can also be submitted under www.career.aero.
