anyone on phase 3 next wednesday? (12th december?)

I wish you the VERY best of luck Adam!

Yeh good luck Adam. I have my phase 3 on the 16th January, have to re-take maths as well......Very nervous!

Just remember to be yourself and sell yourself!

Iv got an engineering final year presentation on wednesday, cant say i am as nervous about this than i was about phase 3! i think my hairline retreated further north the night before!!! hehe

Good Luck

thanks for the good luck wishes. i wish you all the best too

geetea...my hairline is as north as you can get

Worrying is about as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum =)

Good luck Adam.

Feel extremely privilaged to say that I passed Phase 3 ! Couldn't quite take it in at first, however begninning to sink in. Just like to say a huge thanks to the guys/girl who were there, great people and made the whole experience amazing! Any questions you may have im happy to answer! and good luck to those taking it soon!

dunno if this is true but we heard the other day that natwest now do the financing for new cadets and that the loans now have to be secured on a property.

......and the source of this rumour? Or is it just that?

I've been accepted to phase 2 and I'm looking into coming over for test on 8th January, need to check with work and see if I can get the days off first though.

Pcoltas....Can you confirm the loan has to be secured??? If so that woud be a dramatic change...

Coul you detail your information...Thanks

Hi, I just joined the forum because I found out I have been invited to phase 3. I have read a lot on this forum about phase 3 and it seems that apart from technical brushing up a lot of it is just down to me and it seems that it will be difficult to fool the examiners into believing you are something you are not. I have a degree in Aero engineering so I have a good technical knowledge. Could anyone give me any tips or advice on how to do my best on the day? I'd just appreciate knowing a bit more about what to expect. I know a pilot who told me not to worry and like the aptitude tests you either have it or you don't. I desparately want to give this the best shot I can so any help would be great. Thanks!

i heard it from other cadets here at the training centre in NZ, dont have any more info will try and find out today

like i said i dunno if its true, just something i heard

That is not true as far as I know, I go to NZ with CTC next month and all my finances are with HSBC and the loan is unsecured. I find it hard to believe that CTC would change banks as it would be against their ethos of the CTC wings scheme being an affordable way to becoming a FO.

as i said it was just a rumour, turns out it is true but only for the ICP guys, the Wings course is still with HSBC

just another rumour out of the mill

I have my phase 3 next Wednesday Dec. 19th at Bournemouth. Anyone else there? If you want to PM me or just reply, we could meet up and get people in the group to know each other before the group exercise. Good luck everyone!

thanks djfingerscrossed, i certainly will. as far as i know it is still the format previously described here, ie group exercises and discussion plus personal interview. will have more shortly

So how was phase 3? any feedback yet?

Hi,
Just wondering if any of my fellow phase 3-ers got through after thursday?

Also is anyone else doing their phase 4 on 17th January?

hey to all. just got started on here. abot 2 days ago isent all my info to ctc. from the email sent back to me they say they get in contact with u if u do in fact pass on for phase 2. what do they really look for? i mean im actually an interior designer. the only pilot experience i have is pilot glider training, and i only manage to do about 5 hours, didnt have the funds to keep my training going. was a good experience over all, but didnt really get too much out of it. they do say that u dont need to have past experience to be considered, still im sure this is taken into consideration. i feel like i have alot against me at the moment being that im not even english or european. im latin, from south america. to manage to become a pilot i really need financial help, cant manage alone. i am at the moment in london but will be heading home end of january, so thats not going to help very much. what do u all think?
