ANY TIPS FOR QANTAS CADET FLIGHT TESTS?

Hi there, I am intending to apply for the Qantas Cadetship this year. I applied last year for the level one cadetship, but was unsuccessful in the computer tests. I know exactly where I went wrong, so I will fix it up this time, and I know I'll be ok getting through the interview. I will now be applying for the level two cadetship as I am not too far away from getting my commercial pilot licence, is there anyone who can give me some tips on the level two flight test?

Pointers would be great!

If you know exactly where you went wrong, and know you'll nail the interview, you must have inside information as QF does not divulge any feedback.

Why not ask your father?

They didnt tell me where I went wrong, I just know. I asked for tips, not put-downs...... Am I in competition with you people or something.... is that what it is? Maybe just jealous....

Hey Jetrider,
If you "just know" where you went wrong with the computer test why ask for advice?

But dont worry, you will fit in well at QANTAS as you already seem FULL OF YOURSELF !

Hmm, I wouldn't use the word jealous... Or even competition judging from your attitude

Anyway, here's the advice. Bring this attitude you have with you now and make sure you wear a brand new pilot suit to the flight testing.

Bight me career-long baron driver, I asked for help with the flight test, not the computer tests , I said I already had the computer tests nailed.

If you dont have anything nice to say, zip it

Well these guys are surely trying to wind me up I know that. All I asked for was some assistance but times have changed I guess, people don't help eachother any more. You're all jealous because you have probably tried to get into the cadetship but failed

Jetrider, your arrogance is astounding - you'll need to develop a thicker skin if this is your chosen career and remember you catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

To add to Hoss' remark: No I won't, I changed my mind . Flies and honey....Flies and honey....

Don't forget to check your ego at the door to the box like the next bloke writes

I was considering giving you some advice for the flight test given that its a certainty you will pass the interview and all, but then I figured that with your attitude you wont last 5 minutes with PB on the day of the test!
