T fly hiring

I have heard that there are a few more selection days coming up, but I dont know which fleet it is for. Unfort, some people didnt make it through either the initial training, base training or line training, so I am assuming it is to plug some of these holes.

Tips-know and understand fractions, do not spend any time on a question you find difficult, go back to it at the end. I saw a lot of people with half completed math papers make sure you get through all of it, and if you cant its because you have not prepared enough.

English comp tests can be tricky so go to your local wh smith and buy some books on the subject..

group exercise, be yourself and enjoy it, I felt the tension in the room so I had to crack a couple of one liners. Dont be over eager to impress I saw that done and he made a bit of a fool of himself.

sim, you are given everything you need so you should know the profile like the back of your hand with no hesitation. they are not looking for perfection but they are looking to see how well you prepared, most of the guys on my course used flight sim at home....

bad news is once you are in, their are failures on the ground school/sim, on the base training, and on the line training so my piece of advise there is, if you are running into any difficulty talk to others in your class with more experience, nothing worse then the stress of training and keeping it all to yourself....

its a great company..

enjoy
