Anyone been swimming in pool for sometime?
My arms are starting to ache, was never that good at wet drills anyway!
I'm gonna need a life jacket at this rate!
Back to the assessment, people argue whether it is suited to choosing the best pilots. Well, I wouldn't want to answer that but it is suited I'd say to those that put the hard work in. I've applied twice before and got knocked back at the screening stage, but this time my mental attitude was different. You have to buy into the concept and accept it's their show and you must prove to them you really want it!
This time I worked meticulously over a 5 month period leaving no stone unturned..did my research and prepped, it paid off! Ask yourself how much you want it and how much you are willing to work for it. It's been the hardest airline assessment I've ever done but I believe it's worth it!
Best of luck to those applying.
