It was definitely 29th June, whether the fact that they have lengthened the application window is a good or bad sign I'm not entirely sure. Either way best of luck to everyone.

I would love to apply, but unfortunately Hawarden is at least 85miles from my house, so with the route i'd have to take to get there, it'd take me 1hr 45mins to get there at best

Scott C,
Whilst I'm the first to admit I know nothing of your personal circumstances, this is very much the kind of posistion you either commute to or reclocate for.
If you want to get on in this game, you need to be flexible and take whatever is offered early in your career.
Do you really expect to be a commercial pilot based in Staffordshire for the rest of your life? If you think about this properly, you'll probably find you will need to relocate sooner rather than later.

Hi EK4457,
I appreciate that I would probably have to relocate at some point, but at present I am not in a position to do so, due to running my own business...I can't just stop and move away, it would take me several months to wind things down.
I could commute, but APEM have asked that applicants live within a 1 hour drive of the airport. Therefore, I have thought about staying there for the week, but I would have to return to Tamworth on Friday afternoon until Sunday, for a short while at least, due to my other work.
As for my location in Staffordshire, I don't think it should be that much of a problem. I live 2 minutes from J10 of the M42, so I can be at Birmingham or East Midlands Airport within 20mins or so and I can be at coventry in 30mins.
Should a job opportunity arise within the Midlands, I think I am in a pretty good location...who knows!
