Thumbs up Cadets

hi...I found a website that can help us in the aptitude testing (FOR FREE), check it out:

http://www.epst.com/uk/ipas.htm

After clicking on "Start IPAS"

you will have 5 intresting exams...scoring Satisfactory is a good start...I scored between "satisfactory" & "good" the first time...then to All "good" grades the next time...try it & improve yourselves, get used to use such programs...tell me what do you score in your first time...I'm sure that there are some of you who can score "excellent" in the first time.

Cheers...

IPAS

I don't mean to reign in on your parade but may I just remind you that the IPAS test does not in any way constitute the "real" test they use. The IPAS is to gauge a general level of aptitude without pushing one to the limits. It's just there as a quick mock up to familiarise people with which aspects of their aptitude they will be tested on.

Please do not deceive yourselves into thinking that a good score on IPAS will lead to a good score in the actual test. I'm afraid that it is much more than that.

What adds more pressure during these tests is that they will all be timed and you have to get better than average scores to get through as they only want the "creme de la creme".

YOU are 100% right...but why don't we try the IPAS exam?, by the way, in Etihad & Emirates or any other airline...it is hard to get a high score...71% was my Emarati friend score (when applied for Emirates...he was the 4th on his group...the 1st got 76%)...good luck to him (he is now an A330 FO).

cheers

This program is ONLY for those with NO flying experiance, or with a PPL. CPL holders will not be considered.

Thanks alott guys. Im ICAO CPL/IR holder my qualification is HSC and i have 200 hrs of experiance on c-152's c-172's.
common sense suggests one of you is lying,

Seeing that cadet_hani has 200hrs of flight time as a commercial pilot while the Jordanian CARC requires 250 hrs I think I know who is.

61.129 Aeronautical experience.

(a) For an airplane single-engine rating. Except as provided in paragraph (i) of this section, a person who applies for a commercial pilot certificate with an airplane category and single-engine class rating must log at least 250 hours of flight time as a pilot that consists of at least:
(1) 100 hours in powered aircraft, of which 50 hours must be in airplanes.
(2) 100 hours of pilot-in-command flight time, which includes at least :
(i) 50 hours in airplanes; and
(ii) 50 hours in cross-country flight of which at least 10 hours must be in airplanes.

Well hopefully it isn't true that you need a PPL, because that's me out of the picture straight away. It didn't seem right that they needed a PPL anyway, what's the point in being called a 'Cadet' opportunity if they already want you to have a pilot's license.

ZaaZoo I think its already been VERY WELL established who's talking the truth and who's talking sht

I think what is happening here is that our colleagues might be trying to discourage the rest of us...

There was also another person (username punit) who claimed to have recieved a "conditional offer" from etihad in his physical mailbox!! and the condition was that he get his CPL or full license with experience. We clearly know from some people on this forum and myself as I have a relative who works with Eithad, CPL or higher is NO GOOD.


Also, i noticed Cadet _hani and others speaking in thier native language so i think they are schemeing against the people on this forum

Nice Try

From now on im going to bash every one of your claims

Honesty is the best policy

There is absolutely no doubt that there are certain people who are lying in this forum. What I dont understand is what is the point in all this lying especially when your identity is anonymous. Dont discourage others please-it tells much about yourself.

As far as those guys who are indulging in these activities, lets see how far they go as pilots. In aviation speaking the truth is of utmost importance. Experienced people will know what I mean.

Lets keep the forum clean. If you have got an email or any reply from Etihad post it on the forum otherwise dont make tall claims.

Even I was forced to believe that they are taking CPL holders as was posted by one cirrus81 on this forum who claimed to be an ATR pilot in some airline.

Cheers

I called up etihad again today regarding my blank status....they couldnt even find me on their system! they said it would take sometime as they have over 4000 emails with queries regarding the program...

he asked me to email him and call him back in a few days if i still dont hear anything,

Anybody else have a blank application with NO email from them?

I've had a blank status for the past week or so. It previously said applied. I can still edit my application form or "Withdraw" it, if I went crazy or something..

Delay, let us know whats going on- theres no point me sending an email if they've got to sift through the previously stated amount of emails!

Cheers.

Exclamation dubble_dubble

No body of my family is a flyer or worked for an airline...except my uncle who used to work as a flight dispatcher for "Independence air" (USA)... now out of business since Sept 11th, talking about our rooms...I currently have all the EY fleet aircrafts (A330-200, A340-4,5,6 , A380 & A320-200) + Emirates...& the Air Force ONE models + some cockpit & other aircraft amazong photos..in a 4m * 4m room...

Back to our subject...EY Cadet, I tried to contact EY in many ways since 20th of March...starting from the email provided in their auto generated email to their head office phone...looking here & there for any other contact info...but no single reply.

GOOD LUCK ALL
