570k is the max price that someone should pay for this program( even that is way too much) . Any thing above is way too over priced and not worth.

Getting a permanent contract is pretty difficult as there are plenty of mplers pushing in. If you want to calculate your FO oppurtunities, calculate the number of airplanes ABY has in order and compare it with number of students that are waiting for base training vs the batch you will be. Its almost impossible.

The training has never once in alpha history been completed in 18 month, but it has been completed with little more time.


This is a very intense training program. DO NOt be confident that you have passed the assessment.

Pros

World class training
Line training
Professional atmosphere
Highly experienced and friendly instructors


Cons

Expensive
Delays

hello everyone,
i will be giving the assessment soon. I have a couple of questions ..

1. Regarding the physics and math tests, are there only going to be simple direct problems or do advanced questions also come?
2. Also, i havent touched a physics or a Math textbook for around 5 years, so i definitely need to brush up on my core concepts, can someone kindly recommend a good source to prepare from.

Thanks

AAA assignment.
 
Hi Khalid,

Can you please tell me more about the assesment. I am thinking of joining GAA or AAA. What all questions they asked from Physics and Math? Thank you

Is anyone going to join the batch that will start in July?

crazy_bird 30th June 2015 14:49

@KhaledJanahi , hopefully I will, still in the assessment stages

Guys,
has anyone gone for the physics refresher course by Bright Dimensions to prepare for the AAA physics test?

I believe that its the same company that AAA consults with to make the papers.
Can i please get some reviews about their course?

thanks

Wishing you all the best for your assessment and hope to see you soon.

since there is no clear answer anywhere on what the test consists of, I am going to study according to what Alpha Aviation Academy has on their website regarding the assessment:

Alpha Cadet Selection for Cadet | Alpha Aviation Group

You can buy a practice version of the FAST/ADAPT Online on this website:

NZSkillsConnect

I found it to be very helpful. That is of course assuming that is the only test they administer to potential cadets on assessment day.

hello everyone.

I will be giving my final interview soon. Can any of you please give me some tips and share some of the resources that you use to get info on the latest aviation news and any technical aspect that may be asked during the interview.

All constructive comments are welcomed. Thanks in advance! :ok:

Air Arabia is unlikely to give you a permanent contract after 750 or 1500 hours! Too many MPLs and they are not growing fast enough to accommodate all the batches.

They have bonded many of the FOs and nobody will be leaving anytime soon.

Good way to get into the right seat directly but very very expensive and very very risky if anything happens in between your MPL isnt worth anything.

Current Batch Size
 
Hello everyone

Just want to know how many cadets are enrolled in current batches.
Am also looking forward to give the assessment, so I would be really thankful for any suggestions regarding the assessment.

Aplpha Aviation MPL
 
Hi

I am planning to attend the assessment test in Alpha Aviation soon. I had earlier tried the CTC Southampton but could not pass the test. Any advice for the Alpha Aviation assessment test please. I have been in touch with the cadet officers and sought their advice, but not been very helpful. Anyone in the forum, please do provide some help. :sad:

When are you planning for your assessment?

crazy_bird 15th December 2015 11:48

Hello
regarding the assessment, its all pretty basic stuff.
the English test is very basic, if you are used to speaking in English then it shouldn't be a problem for you.
the math test is high school level, if you go through the topics given to you, it will be OK. none of the questions should be out of the ordinary.
physics too is at the high school level, I suggest you do a bit of brushing up if you have been out of touch with the subject, some of the questions to get a bit tricky.
a lot of candidates had gone to bright dimensions in deira, Dubai for a refresher course in math and physics. they train you with the alpha assessment test in mind. there are refresher courses conducted in alpha as well.

to be honest, even if you do find the assessment tests to be easy, don't let that fool you. The course is far from easy. it requires a lot of hard work.

cheers

G'Day Gents,

Any update on the AAA/Air Arabia MPL programme? Thinking of joining at the end of the year. Just wondering if anyone has been successful thus far.

Cheers.

is it true that the last few batches have been sitting on the ground for 6 months? no flying/no type rating no nothing?
