Tell me about it.

At first I thought excellent and then I realised that it really is not much more than getting the Thanks but No Thanks letter. I was trying to figure out how they had worked out the three not to get on to the course - I reckon it came down to aptitudes as that is the only way they can statistically and fairly do it.

8 months is a long time but I guess when you want something that bad then you'll do anything.

Tell me again why we put ourselves through this?

I got my call as well last night! Absolutely ecstatic - it still hasnt sunk in yet though.

I too have been rejected many times in the past, but you have to pick yourself up and keep trying. Good luck to the guys who didnt make it this time - you will make it soon!

Im really grateful to all the ppruners who have directly or in-directly helped me over the years (i used to go by a different name). Pprune has always been the starting point in solving problems or getting information and has definately contributed to getting me where i am today.

Thank you all so much.

Just a little post to say thanks to everybody for the congrats. Its been a long time coming but the feeling when you are told is unbelievable. Since I found pprune over a year ago it has been a massive help in achieving my goal and also instrumental in making me one of the least productive people at work
Anyway, cheers all and don`t give up trying,

Schooner

Hello Everyone

First post for me so here goes...

I too had the call from bmi last week to say I'd been successful with my cadet pilot application - absolutely unbelievable, it still hasn't sunk in. I too start on the 21st, I'm counting the hours!

Thanks to all those who posted info on pprune, it definitely helps you to prepare.

Best of luck to all those who want to fly, keep the faith, it can be done!

Been looking at this thread over the last few weeks, congratulations to those who got in this time and sympathies to those who did not. Maybe you will be succesfull next year or get a place with another carrier. Enjoy your time at Oxford, work hard, play hard as they say!. I am an Airbus skipper at LHR so no doubt will see some of you out on the line next year.

Well done!.
