No, I wasn't interviewed by Geoff and Sarah or Denise, I was interviewed in the right hand side room by Jonathan who is both a 757 and 767 pilot.
What's your theory Matt?

Nothing to say on this subject any longer, I have decided that a peaceful form of protest can be most effective... I have a dream...!!!

Congratulations Oscar Juliet. Does that mean you are starting with BACX in October? What about Britannia? Will you notify them today that you are out of their race?

I'm starting on the August course, I will e-mail Denise just to tell her. However Britannia probably already know.
I think you will hear tomorrow becasue Britannia told most people that they would hear on Friday.
Best of luck

OJ, so are you completely out of the Britannia race, or are you hanging on for possibly two offers? I appreciate leaving BACX hanging is dangerous, but just wondered. August start sounds good too, more time to prepare! You got your Class 1 yet?

Well done OJ thats fantastic news for you. You guys start on the 1st August don't you so it doesn't give you much more time to prepare!!
As for Niraj etc i'm still confident you guys have got through. I spoke to a friend you applied who doesn't use PPRUNE and he hasn't heard either. So given about 6 PPRUNERS haven't heard and my made a NON PPRUNER that make 7. I doubt 7/8 of those unsuccesful were you guys to be perfectly honest. So i wish you the best of luck still. HAve any of you heard from Denise yet?
Maybe ring FTE up they would know.

A possible explanation for the delay with Britannia was that they were waiting to see if BA Citiexpress offered myself and somebody else (who also had an interview both airlines) a place. So if you are still waiting you may have some good news tomorrow!

OJ,
Congratulations mate! well done!!
See you in sunny Jerez pretty soon.
I'm gonna stick my neck out here and say, i too think
it will more than likely be tomorrow.
Perhaps FTE, TF and BACX have been juggling us around, either placing us with one or the other.
I know its easy for me to say, but don't be too concerned yet.
As Taiguin said, what are the odds of all of you, who have not heard, not getting through??
Extremely remote, i'd say!!!
Keep your chins up people

Thanks for your post Taiguin, it put a little smile on my face!
If the first BACX intake starts on the 1st of August, and the Britannia intake starts on the 25th of July, that's just one week's difference. I wouldn't have imagined two courses starting so close together. Anyway, you're definately doing the right thing OJ by taking BACX's offer, a bird in the hand and all that. Bet you're chuffed to bits, some nice work you must have done yesterday at your interview! Can I ask if you took seperate tests for BACX or were your Britannia results used?
Taiguin, no email from Denise yet, or FTE for that matter. (I also emailed FTE yesterday asking if they were any the wiser as to our situation).
Kev has kindly offered me Denise's number, but I have so far declined on the basis that if she is unable to answer my email, she'll be unable to answer my call. I'm sure she's doing the best she can, and I don't want to appear pushy for an answer, nor someone who panics.
Calling FTE is feasible, but no doubt they must be really busy with other applicants like OJ who have been accepted.
Kev, in my Phase 4 interview I was expressly told that there would be no collusion between the airlines. I was told that Britannia would make its offers and they would then hope that all offers would be accepted. I can't envisage anyone rejecting an offer from Britannia, but they may also have had a 'reserve list' in case one or more persons jumped ship to BACX or failed their medical (again, unlikely). However this is only what I was told by the Captain, that is not to say some sort of communication between the airlines is not taking place having regard to the steep competition.

That was possibly me OJ, since i was suppose to have an interview with them yesterday. If that is true i feel like royalty!
OJ,
Sorry mate i'm not in lboro anymore. After five years of being there i couldn\'t wait to get out of it!! I left last friday and have been at home in the lakes ever since. Would have been nice to meet you.
Enjoy the glider building....was quite a laugh when we did it. Unfortunately my wing fell off just before the first launch so i hope you have more success!!!
Good luck all, tommorow will bring good news i assure you all!
