Gonzo, thanks.
It's a bit of a relief to know that normal folk like myself make up the majority. I was under the impression that this roll would be made up of as you say, anoraks, who live and breath aviation.
I've already begun revising all the details of the test materials, have booked my flights, confirmed my interview date for Fri Jan 29th (Anyone else the same?) and will do the online test later on today whenever I can get a bit of peace and quiet from my family.
Here's hoping!
