Thankyou for all your replies - just back from the pub after a little celebration!!
My story - service background, PPL, BCPL, ATPL exams with PPSC, upgrade course with OATS. Unemployed with debt!! With no FO job in sight gained employment with Airtours as FE. Working 6 months - then out of the blue a call last Tuesday for a Sim assessment on the Thursday. Given the OK today. The lesson.....do NOT give up
Not quite there yet - yes, I have a long way to go but its an opportunity I have longed for and will work hard at.
I'll update you on progress.
Jim Nich - nice to hear from you - the gamble paid off! Will call soon.
I'm off for another beer!!
