If you go for a job interview you will be asked why you want the job, and "What will you bring?" (see current defence ads). An employer wants to know if you are motivated, and doing some reading to find out more about what that job entails indicates that you are genuinely interested. Ultimately you may be interested in flying for an airline, so in preparing for such a job interview you would be wise to find out what aircraft types they fly in their fleet and where.

Motivation that drives applicants to be well informed usually also drives performance, so your motivation to be informed is a mirror into your motivation to succeed. General knowledge about Australian airline fleets and the UNSW training fleet is easily found on their websites, so get informed prior to any interview!

The UNSW program is delivered by UNSW itself not by a commercial contractor, and is of high standard. A notable graduate is Squadron Leader David Bell, F35A pilot and future Instructor of Instructors for the RAAF.
