Hmmm,

Having looked a little more in to the scheme on the site I can see a few things that do not add up. With regard to the fixed wing FI Sponsorship:

The timings look a little ambitious to put it lightly!

If for example you are selected for interview then you will attend on the 18th June. If you were to be successful then I would imagine you would find out by late june, that gives you approx a week to get yourself booked on an FI course in summer!! Now even with our weather, getting on a course that quick in summer is mighty ambitious! Your looking at courses being booked at least two months ahead generally.

Then there is the Oct 9th Deadline! What happens if you go past that due to illness or weather! Going by our summer this year it is quite possible for the course to take a few months!

If anyone knows the answers or knows inside info on how these timings work out please let me know.

Regards
