Hi, thanks for all the valuable advise on this page, it has answered tonnes of questions I would have had,
I'm flying down from Glasgow on Monday to do stage 2 on Tuesday. Even saw someone mention the ibis in Southampton I'm staying at for 2 nights. Looking forward to it but nervously trying to memorise all the aircraft details.
Anyone else going on Tuesday, send me a dm and also if anyone has tips on how to memorise the data in a small time frame, iv tried flash cards and even recorded myself on my phone to listen in the car 😂 it would be greatly appreciated. Good luck to everyone still to sit assessments and waiting to hear the results.

I also have my stage 2 on Tuesday but unlike you I don't have too far to travel. I'm from Margate and I'm getting the train down. I've also got flash cards but I'm not even all the way through the booklet yet so I need to put my head down and get stuck in. Luckily enough I'll be sitting on the train for about 4 hours so I can use that time wisely 😁

Good luck to us both then Russ, I'm convinced they make it that difficult so very few candidates will get 100%, at least thats what I'm hoping 🤞

I did try sending you a PM but looks like your inbox is full.

I have my stage 2 on next Friday and I'm flying from Australia.
They couldn't possibly expect us to memorise all the aircraft info could they? Let me know how yours goes!

Found out this morning I have passed stage 2, so happy! Thanks again for all the advice on this thread, it helped a lot. No dates available for Prestwick yet to do stage 3 so just a waiting game.

Well done on passing and keep checking for Prestwick dates - there aren't many of them and they fill fast!
Well done also Russ!

For those of you who have been through the process, how long did it take you to get security clearance?
Also as far as I'm aware Global in Gloucester only do approach and aerodrome (as well as basic), is that correct? What about CTC? Do they do everything i.e. approach, aerodrome, and area as well?

Mine took about 8 weeks. And yes, only ADI and APS ratings.

Hi all!
I've been reading this forum for a while, and decided to join. I had my interview on the 21st of November, and found out I passed the next day. I'll be going to Global in Gloucester at the beginning of March, and was wondering if there were any WhatsApp/Facebook groups for people going to that course.

Your Class 3 medical certificate will be signed off there and then by the AME after the medical if you meet all the requirements. If there's something that needs further investigation then you'll need to go do that and it'll be referred to the CAA and they'll let you know.

Don't know why they'd take this down and leave others pages with out of date/incorrect info up.

Hi all, I have my stage 2 soon and have received the email detailing what to bring. Those who have done stage two if you have a valid ID do you also have to bring your p45/60 and Birth Certificate or is that just for those without valid ID? Panicking slightly as can only find a copy of my birth certificate!
