I actually did make the afternoon, thanks. Sorry if I misunderstood what you were looking for, in that case to answer your question I actually really enjoyed the day! But I have to disagree with you about your last sentence - the captain himself who's running the assessment days said that lots of people who are brilliant and meet all the requirements won't be picked, just purely because the competition is so high and you have to be "very lucky as well as brilliant" to make it. So I have to disagree and say we are very much competing with one another.
And on that note in response to another comment above - nobody has got the final "yes" yet, nor will they for at least 3 weeks I'd say. Aer Lingus are doing this fairly and reviewing all candidates together at the end. I say fairly, this will probably give a tiny advantage to those in the last week because they will be best remembered, but there is no way to do this process 100% fairly - as the captain said there is luck involved!
