Yippee!!! I just heard that I have been selected for the Air Atlantic sponsorship scheme. I am ecstatic right now and I have just told my gran!!
I was wondering if there is anyone out there - fellow PPRUNERS!!- who will be trekking out to South Africa in the coming weeks?
I also wanted to hear from anyone who is already on the scheme out there. Email me PLEASE! I am very excited but also a little apprehensive! Should I learn the language?? My gran wants to buy me the Linquaphone Afrikaans for beginners - is this a good idea as I want to make my sojurn in the new african republic a pleasant one indeed!

Low-level,

Congratulations mate!!!!

I'm still doing my PPL but am certainly interested in this sponsorship for the future.

Would you mind letting me know the details of the criteria for application and also the selection procedures.

Many thanks and good luck!

P.S. Give us a shout upon your return from S.A.

Congrat's,
I am a british pilot out here in sunny S.A.
Flying here prepares you well, and well on par with the flying your use to back in the U.K.
Learning the language can be of an advantage, although English is spoken by almost everybody.
Any further questions you can email
good luck.

From what I can gather this is an excellent scheme, had my eye in it for a while, drooled over those Electras many times!

Enjoy the course Lo Level and good luck!
