Thank God for this opportunity! We're in!!!!:)

ladies
 

Supercaptain,Sam,aren't there any ladies?Surely...

Get used to it, during our posting we had the biggest class ever posted of 23 cadets to 43, guess what only had 1 lady who unfortunately got axed midway training at 43, came back 20 guys.
Class of 2005/2006 had the most chillez if you don't mind me calling them that, seven of them and 3 guys, 1 lady and 1 dude got droped in SA, leaving 6 to graduate, unfortunately one more lady from this class and another dude got axed during their 737 transition.
It's a sausage fest ladies and gentlemen, huh what I'm I saying gentlemen and gentlemen:}, but don't worry the flying is a lot of fun and intensive you still find a way to make the best of it, remember teamwork will get you places, the fast learners guide the slower ones as much as possible, if you have a bad flight don't sulk and hide talk to your pals about it, lastly before you go out for a sortie read thoroughly on it and ask guys already ahead what to expect, though everybodys experience when it comes to training is unique it helps being ready. As for theory, nmh kq cadets always most definitely breeze through them it's our strongest side, as you all know you were picked from a pool of highly intelligent kenyans if not the best:D congratulations yet again.
Guys remember it isn't a comp amongst you coz all of you want to come back with the coveted blu book in hand

Ooh last word good luck fellas, I guess this is my last post on this thread I'll wait and connect the eager faces once you fellaz get back from SA, as I said before back here it's a family, a big one for that matter and always growing, but some of the best guyz in the industry always at hand to assist, looking forward to seeing all of you chaps :hmm:

roger that odericko,alpha tango echo...

Captlg, we will abide by the golden rule, hoping to enjoy very moment too.

Cpt pat, thanks. I believe its not the end of life for you and others who didn't make it. Eitherway, life has to go on.

Dzaque, thanks too. You seem to be having a good time. We are coming... Sunday is our day.

Odericko, great words of wisdom there! That really helps, especially the part on team work. We are a family and not out to out-do one another. Bearing the competitive nature of Kenya institutions, I hope my colleagues and I shed away that attitude and be ready to leave as a family of 12 and come back to Kenya as such. Its people like you who make the world bearable and I personally look forward to meeting you someday. Thanks chap!

G12; congrats pals. We are heading far, by the grace of God!

congrats
 

this is to all aspiring young men (rumoured that there are no girls) *am young too though*:rolleyes: and glad for you its a fulfillment of a dream,if not all.and i really pray that all works out for you.:D:D:D its a chance placed on your doorsteps a just hope you realize that.

confirmation
 

thx fellaz. this thread has helped me to finally pull through this whole ordeal. Anybody has an idea when more KQ cadets are expected at 43. We were told to wait 1 or 2 months but just want to know mo precisely when. Thanks once again people.

Captig,

Hey you sent me a message, been trying to respond but cant be able to reply to it, I guess it's the personal settings you put, send me another mail if you are still keen on my input, cheers mate and goodluck

Landed safely
 

Hey pals.

Thank God that we arrived safely at Progress FA on Monday and started classes immediately the next day. Its lots of fun for us... and lots of books indeed. Wish u all well in your endeavours.

Congrats once again!
 

Its great to hear that you people arrived at Progress FA safely and rolled up your sleeves the following day to start a journey towards realizing your dreams.I wish you all a nice stay there, always keep in touch men and God willing we will meet down there in SA as the next lot of cadets because just as your passion and hope in the reality of your dreams came to be, we also do believe our time will come.I know you will always find yourselves in demanding environments and obviously much fun and adventure as well.. doing what you hold onto passionately. Hongera tena. God bless you all.

Thanks skystar! we look forward to seeing you people here. you'll really feel at home coz majority of the students at Progress are KQ cadets. its just a small Kenya away from Kenya.
Just give it your best and am sure you'll make it. It looks tough when you're in the recruitment process but after it it will look so easy, all the same its very much achievable...some people have to come to SA anyway!
Ground school is fun though there is lots and lots of cramming to do, aircraft specifications and many procedures and checks. but the whole experience is thrilling knowing I'm being prepared to fulfil my greatest ambition.
Do let us know when KQ advertises for the next intake, and feel free to seek our help. nice time!!

heeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyy...am stil waitn for the nxt intake..am wondring y thea no ladies in ths intake tht hs jst ended..ppl,leme assure u tht wen a strt off wth the rigorous interviews...a thnk al do anythn in ma ability to c maslf in south africa..ths a chnc worth dying for...am unmoved by som thngs..a bliv in maslf, am driven by ambition n powered by intellect..thaz Vane Molly...please.if theaz any chk here,a thnk we have to shw tht we a also able..i wanna b a pilot...:8

To become a pilot you need to behave in a professional manner. You will get NOWHERE until you learn to write english instead of this childish crap.

Ancient Geek - prepare for the customary flaming and accusations of "you're just a wannabe KQ pilot who never made it through (insert requisite test/exam here) and are a h8er". How dare you criticise Kenya's great and good aspiring Captains (funny how everyone on here manages to insert some form of "Capt" into their username, innit?) by implying that they are unable to grasp the simple basics of the English language! ;-)

Really? Then why can't you write proper English?

Heh. :rolleyes:
Us old timers know a loser when they see one.
Kids of today muttermutter.........

super captain
 

I reckon there's another group who went to 43 Air School from the last recruitment process.Twelve people went to Progress,right?

O ye high and mighty mods, if textspeak pisses you off so much why don't you just ban and block the users responsible? You really show a fine example with your sarcasm and insulting language. :D

In the first place, neither of the two posters to whom you refer are mods. Their reaction is understandable in the face of continued use of the appalling drivel that is textspeak, despite numerous requests to post using coherent English.

In the second place, I'm quite sure if you ask nicely the mods would be happy to ban and block those using textspeak.
