Skyborne is online?
I think the reason FTE people are being accepted is them flight assessments are in person at waterside, however Skyborne's will be online, just a thought, however it could be why only FTE people are hearing back as the actual group exercises and interview is November time as stated by BA.

Advice on where to park?
Were there 4 different days or different times. I got my invite at late on 2nd but didn’t see it until the third and by that time there was only 1 showing for me.

Check out StephenAv8's latest YouTube video (not allowed to post links yet).

Timestamp 02:36 - Stephen confirms Skyborne applications are taking longer.

It was 4 days, looks like an entire day 0830-1630.

I could have done with it being a couple of weeks away I’ve got an exceptionally busy two weeks with work but it’s not something I can miss.

I just noticed on the BA Careers website my application is now designated as "Speedbird Pilot Academy - Skyborne", I'm pretty sure it didn't mention Skyborne previously. Has anyone else changed or similar for those with assessments at FTE?
Crazy how we fixate on silly details like this which ultimately mean nothing in the grand scheme of things - you either progress or you don't

Mine also now says Skyborne, fairly sure it was just Speedbird Pilot Academy before. Probably means absolutely nothing, but I’ll read into anything at this stage!

Well spotted - I'm Skyborne too and mine has changed, suggesting that the applications from each FS are processed seperately!

Mine also says Skybourne and I just had an email from BA Pilot Rec saying I'm through to the next assessment and Skyborne will be in touch shortly!

Not sure if this will actually be an assessment day, rather an online assessment. Purely speculation but maybe FTE Jerez students have been asked to attend Waterside as that’s FTE’s preference?

I anticipate we either get an invite from Skyborne’s system to do online tests or an invite to Skyborne instead. Again purely speculation
