Im in the same prediciment, albeit on the different side of the world
Only just failed pilot selection ( failed instrument reading by 5/8s)
I was offered any other airecrew position but politly told the shrink "thanks but no thanks"
here's to another yr of waiting. But it's going to be a good yr of waiting i can tell u.
Idle: if you are really after it wait the yr. Take some time off to relax, i know i need some more, i was studying my arse off for a few months before, mainly maths s/t/d.
Just have a fun few months then get back into it a few months before re-testing, u know what to expect now and where u went wrong. Two good things to be able to focus on.
