Flight school
 

Aptly said supercaptain.Flight training is more of a practical course in the long run,some university courses are more demanding but one thing for sure is that the short time frame one has to go through in flight school makes it more challenging,pilots are literally responsible for lives up there thats why a lot of emphasis is laid on proper training and competency.

How will the KQ guys track that I attended the October interview and reached the Psychomotor test unsuccesfully?? How do they know if you change email?

supercaptain I applied on July and I will be going for my aptitude test on tuesday 30 any other person invited?:D

I know a couple of guyz who are going for the interview on Tuesday,KQ must be really keen in having a large pilot base.

there's always the option of training through the Kenya Armed Forces cadet recruitment,they train their cadets at 43 Air School,just make sure you enroll yourself in their next recruitment drive...but you will obviously have to work in the military for some time before going commercial.

joining the air force as an aircrew isn't a direct and easy process like the KQ one. its a long process and if you just want to get the experience in the air force, you might kind of be very very very disappointed...takes 2-3years to graduate form the military academy, before you convince another board to be considered a student pilot. but hey MAKMENDE can as well give it a try when the time comes

conratulations to those of you who managed to get to South Africa, and those of you waiting to go. This thread has proved to be very useful for ab initios, let's stay up to date and inform each other incase of any new information, especially those waiting for the next recruitment

People wearing glasses
 

hey guys, i need to get something right here. when the KQ ab initio recruitment says that one of their requirements is "having good eyesight", does that mean that you have 20/20 vision without glasses or you can have corrective 20/20 glasses?
in case they dont offer to people with 20/20 glasses, can you apply for the direct entry if you wear glasses?:rolleyes:

Couldnt agree more
