Morning all,

Congrats Lovejoy I also just found I passed stage 2, though i'm not at dibden till 5th April and if anyone has any useful info on stage 3 would be much apreciated.

For whoever might find it useful this was lay out of my stage 2 day;

a.m. (10 - 12) presentation teliing people about the scheme
lunch for half hour (£160 for a sandwich, what a rip!)
p.m. was split into two groups, some people did the following in opposite order but for me
12.30-12.45 simple numeracy test 15 questions in 15 minutes basic maths although the questions had to be extracted, (e.g. if an aircraft decends from 10000 feet at a rate of 1500 feet per minute to 4000 feet, how long does it take to decend?)
Then quite a bit of sitting about waiting to start the capacity test.
2.00-3.30 capacity test, the previously mentioned pilapt test, (uses 7 different modules) this wasnt to complex until the last test, it involves using a joystick to center a crosshair on the centre of the screen, simple shape identification, number recognition etc (simple tests using combination of either keyboard, joystick or a mouse as inputs and headphones and a monitor as outputs)
3.30-late, a long train journey home!

Everyone there was wearing a suit except for one in a jumper who im guessin was reverand lovejoy!
thanks to anyone posting advice on this forum, very useful
