Affirm, since you need to upload your documents at CAE.

Message me if you are FR1807

Hey guys,
Thanks a lot for all your comments, it helped me a lot to prepare for my assessment. Here's how it went for me:

Sent application: 12.12.2017
Application incomplete email.. 13.12.2017
Completed application: 15.01.2018
Mail about phone call 30.01.2018
Phone call 06.02.2018
Assessment 27.02.2018
Positive answer 06.03.2018
TR intro week: 07.05.2018, EMA.

Phone call:
Straight forward, no tricks, very easy as described by others in earlier posts.

Assessment:

I went to Upilot and had a 3hour session, absolutely recommended! I had no 737 experience from before so this was a must to do!

Simulator:
I had the EMA amended departure clearance and ILS 27 approach. Got emergency smoke in galley, remember DODAR and NITS!!

Technical questions:

Why bypass engine
How does it work
How does a wing create lift
What is a lenticularis cloud
How is a jetstream formed
What speed to be named jetstream
Critical engine on multiengine aircraft I flew during my training?
What is a critical engine?
What is critical angle of attack?
If you have temperature 3 dew point 2 on metar what can you expect?

How many passengers ryanair 737?
Why ryanair?
Strengths and weaknesses?
Are you able to relocate?
Are you able to finance type rating?
Tell me about yourself?
How did you get interested in aviation?

Please ask if there's anything I can help with
Good luck everyone!

Hi

For the typerating itself, can you guys recommend a questionbank for the 737NG? I've heard that you can practice alot of the questions beforehand. Ofcourse you would need extensive knowledge of the entire plane, but some questions would be great aswell. Any ideas?

I hope you all are doing great!

I failed the assessment in June 2018 - i’m In the same boat. I wonder whether they will offer another chance. Being honest, I was a bit rubbish in June and out of touch but hoping for a second chance! Anyone being called for a second assessment?

[ECCXI]

I have listened, one instructor in my school he had been calling 3 weeks ago, and he failed the assessment almost one year ago. It's mean that you probably has a second try in the next year.

[Estartap]

There isn't a fixed date, but it's around 11,12 months from your failed assessment to get the call ( I don't know if they do always invite you again) .But my question is, with the new organization changes and the fact that they're offering RYR direct contracts, Are CAE and storm mckingley continue leading the selection proccess or is it RYR the one who will do it?

[rasac]

Hello guys

In January CAE sent me an email informing that I would receive a call from RYR. But I was on a type rating and told them that I was no longer interested. But when The conditions changed I asked to CAE via email that I am interested once again on the cadet programme. They should contact me soon or I need to wait one year?


Best regards

I cannot send you a PM for some weird reason (maybe you don't have the correct email privacy settings).

Here's the group we created a while ago for the CAE1803 in AMS (just erase the spaces in the url, I cannot post links)

So, in my case age wasn't a factor.

Cheers!

Thank you for the words of encouragement. I won't be able to afford the training until I'm into my thirties, so, to see yourself experiencing success at a similar age group strikes confidence into my own belief about my future chances.
