Interesting to read.

Of course it is beneficial that the group size is small, in terms of those being taken on by FlyBe, and the waiting time between course completion at FTE and the TR commencing will be minimal.

What are peoples thoughts?

I’m probably being a bit impatient here but has anyone who recently attended the stage 3 selection down in Exeter had any information regarding their progression onto stage 4 yet? It’s coming up to 2 weeks since the selection and I presumed we would have a response either way by now.

I've not heard anything yet. But, as they said, no news no mean bad news, just mean that they didn't decide yet.

I'm currently on a Flybe scheme, albeit with a different FTO. Below is a link to a piece I have done on the selection etc. Hope this helps some of you.

Good luck!

I was at phase 3... let's hope...

you guys completed all the questions?
I left 4 in the first, 2 in the second, 4 at verbal reasoning and I did answer all the question in the last test (we had 25 minutes instead of 20...). I'm confident in the answers I gave, but it's a pity that the time wasn't enough for me...

how much did you get on the 2 joystick tests? I got 5, 5 and 5 in the ILS, and 5, 10 and 10 on the flight sim...

let me know, i'm curious

good luck everyone!

Hi Jamstar,

The candidates that have been selected for the final interview with FlyBe in Exeter next week were notified earlier in the week.

I'm not sure on the exact numbers left at this stage.

Best of luck to everyone still involved.

Good luck

Good luck to all those still involved. How much are these lucky 'part sponsored' cadets being loaned by Flybe anyway?

FlyBe will loan the cadets £19800 and the remaining £65k has to be raised by the cadet.

One point to note is that the training will be completed in Jerez with FTE, which means that accommodation and meals are included in the price tag of £65k.

Once training has been completed, the cadets will begin a funded type rating on the -Q400.

I think the 6 selected candidates would find themselves in a very fortunate position. FlyBe is certainly a very professional and sound outfit.

Sounds like a good scheme - would be interested to hear how long Flybe bond the pilot in for their generous £19,800?
