Not even a sniff, nothing! I reckon it may be sometime before they tell us considering for Thomson there was 32 candidates - im sure they would spend at least an hour on each persons results before making a decision and even after that I am sure there would be some sort of meeting/discussion between a few people in thomson to come to an agreement. With that in mind I believe they would take well more than a week to sift through all the results/reports etc.

Me thinks it will be tomorrow!!

EK4457

I was told by the lady during my interview that they would put the names forward to Thomson fly on the Friday/Monday and from then it was there decision!

I think we are waiting on Thomson Fly's decision not that of FTE.
Therefore, i don't think we'll have to wait for the BAcitiX guys and gals to do their selection.

Oh well! i remain in suspenders, i mean suspense.

Yeah, I just got mine. Saw the title "Thomsonfly Pilot Approved Training Scheme" in the inbox... my heart started beating faster... the moment of truth.

HA.

Another 10 days?! Noooo!

Patience is a virtue, right?

What was the deal with the "look forward to seeing you in Jerez soon" bit at the end - I guess FTE are presuming that if not lucky with this scheme we would be heaading there to train anyway!

Yes, this does appear to be a test of character at least, waiting for the first one to crack and then raid Britannia HQ for answers!!!!

Hi everyone!

Anyone got invited to Britannia Phase 4 yet? I've got mine on Thursday in Luton, but I thought FTE said it would take 10 days?

Cheers!

Niraj.

Which email have you had Aviation Kid? The one from FTE about the 10 days? I think we all got that email but the 10 days seems to be incorrect.

The email invite to Phase 4 is from the domain britanniaairways.com, not flighttrainingeurope.com as they normally are.

I'm sure your invited will be along in a while.

Good luck to everyone!

Niraj.

Hello Niraj.

I had the Email from Flight training europe not the one from Britannia!

I hope you're right, and my Email turns up shortly!

I'm in a bit of a predicament at the moment. Im due to start the APP in July but i'd much rarther start on the Thomson fly cadet scheme instead. The only problem is, i have to send off my deposit very soon, but can't until i hear from T'Fly!!!

I wonder if they'll let those people at phase 4 know on the day weather they're in or not?

Best of luck to everyone!!
Best of luck Niraj

Hey guys,

I've been invited to an interview on thursday 16th too in Luton.

Do you think that they have narrowed the 32 down to a smaller number then? Has anyone not got an interview? Just curious.

Anyhow good luck to everyone who attends.

Ian

I would expect that they would have cut 32 down to at least 16. Otherwise there wouldnt be much point in holding stage 3!!
With 10 places going the odds are looking good i suppose!!!

Aviation Kid,

I signifcantly doubt that they'll let anyone know on the day. I presume they'll be pretty busy on the day what with each interview being 45 mins, and presumably 10 people to see. I don't think they'll be able to fit in more than 10 on one day, so maybe it is spread over two days and you are to be invited for the following day and hence the delay in emailing you.

There's a good chance you haven't had the email yet because people (like me) who have heard are emailing her back discussing times thus eating up her time.

Of course you'd rather be on the Thomsonfly scheme and your priorities should lie with Thomsonfly until exhausted. Maybe you could delay your deposit to OAT? Or if they do not permit that, then start on the August course?

But neither of those may be necessary if you ask for a quick decision in the interview, but be tactful about it, otherwise you'll make it easy for them to say "No, you can go to OAT in that case".

All the best mate, let us all know how you get on.

Best regards,

Niraj.
