Just how far have you successful guys gotten with this now? Have you had your final selections?

I have been watching this thread with interest.

Personally i would not have been eligible anyways and at 36yrs of age have no intention of going back to Uni .

I used to be an engineer with BA when they run a franchise with Brymon Airways at the former Plymouth City Airport using Dash 8s. I suffered redundancy from that and also previously with MAEL at Luton. I decided to leave the industry in the end and pursed a career out of the aviation industry on the railways. I get paid double what i used to receive as an Engineer and indeed probably substantially more than what some Airline FOs get so it hasn't all been bad news for me.

To that end i am funding me own PPL course and for me that is where my aviation chapter will come to an end. I am loving every aspect of it though and admire all your commitment and enthusiasm.

Best of luck and keep this thread updated with all your progress with BA.
