Bristows Sponsorship

Having read all the other messages relating to this subject - I now do not know what to think?

I am one of the lucky ones that has been offered full sponsorship from Bristows along with two (I think!!) other people this year. We all leave for Florida in September of this year for ten months training.

As far as I am concerned it is a no lose situation. I get sponsored to train in Florida from one the biggest civilian helicopter operators in the world, then if I pass with a bit of luck they give me a job. Why do most of the messages sound negative even if the job does not materialise (which it will eventually) I get all my training paid for and live in Florida for ten months. I am not sure about everyone else but this does not happen all too often for the rest of my scouse mates. Even if they post me abroad - briiliant - get paid to see some of the world even if it is a bit dodgy - I am only 25 anyway!!!

If anyone out there gets a chance go for the sponsorship, I am not sure how they let me slip through their strict selection procedure - I honestly do not know what go me through. Only advice I can give anyone that is applying is to show plenty of enthusiasm.

I cannot wait to get going!!!!!!

Please send me an e-mail if you fly for Bristows or have been to HAI in Florida or have any other advive or tips for me

Cheers
