well i started in Febuary, and ive loved aviation for years, and since ive started it is just fabulous, its dam hard but if its what you want then youll enjoy it to. as for the selection MARTIN_EGTK has got it nailed on the head. its not really that difficuly, although i know of someone who is to say the least rather wealthy and failed selection and now is bitter and twisted towards Oxford because `They should still take me on, because i have the money in cash` Idiot!
Oxford is great for a aviation lover thought. i would highly recomend it
