Indeed Im near the end of my HSBC application/handout.Only 9 weeks til start of my training.Like mentioned save up some money,and go out and do things that show your willingness.My own circumstances were that I got my PPL,paid for my hour building and the Class 1 medical.Aswell as getting a job in the aviation field(hence my username
)
All this seemed to help my application which was no problem.|Though saying that I am on the modualr route already hold my PPL.
Regards
