bacou

Ive had mine... just waiting now in suspense..I was told I would be informed within two weeks, if I am successful then its round two, the nut nut tests...

Its like the 'The X factor'....'Im afraid......you're....going...to be...coming back...you're through to the next round...

The next ground school is the 5th November (Guy Fawkes Night in England)..hope they don't burn me on the top of Riga Control Tower..

Good luck bacou

Thanks
I hope you did well.
I was not aware that the interview was in two round (sounds like a rugby match) and I hope I won't loose this one
Can you tell me more about what is scheduled at each stage of the assessment?

Thanks for your explanation Winglet.
I'll discover how many stages I need to complete in a near future.
Are you based at Riga or Vilnius and any advise for the choice btwn these 2 cities ?

Agree with Winglet.
Vilnius is less flights, especially night flights.
Less lack of C/C which cause everybody to be nervous.
Not as close to the management as in Riga which will
safe you some hairs falling out.

Well..... u also said in may that we would get 757`s anytime ???

And... today i flew with the technical pilot in the company.... or whatever his titel is.... And i think most would regard him as a valid source for information... and.. well... he laughed about the rumour of a330`s ..

So.... I think its a rumour and nothing more

Pretty soon there will likely be some cheap dashes to buy! SAS is grounding theirs. Maybe AB could get a good price on them.
Just the way AB likes it!
If the landing gear comes out, remains to see.

You can always give them a call! I did that 2 years ago. They told me that they would let me know in 2 weeks. When I didnt hear anything I called them. The day after I got my starting date.
So just ask in a polite way. Remember that it is them who havent given the feedback they promised!

Good luck

Thanks for your support guys, I must be giving you all an ear ache..thinking back I didnt get given the time to attend my interview until the night before. Its just I am really messing my boss around at work by being so indecisive, think I will give them a bell.
