Skyborne

Just had a congratulations and "skyborne will be in contact about next stages"
​​​​
Interestingly that says AT skyborne, suggesting it might not be online tests as their website indicates! And they're UK location is Gloucester I believe.

"We would like to invite you to the next stage of assessment for the Speedbird Pilot Academy at Skyborne."

Did the video interview the morning of Sat 30th September and got this email about 10:30am 5th October (alongside many others, indicating a bulk/batch sending pattern).

Good luck guys! Haven't received anything yet nor has the application changed to Skyborne. Chances are getting slim
Not sure if the GCSE equivalents take some time to evaluate via ECCTIS or something

Hey guys - did those of you with assessment centre invites (FTE or Skyborne) select a preference of flight school, or did some of you select no preference and have still been notified of the next stage?

I haven't got one yet either. But also haven't got a rejection email and the video invite came later for me than everyone else.

Out of interest of those who have heard and are on the skyborne path, when did you submit your videos? I did mine Friday night.

Thursday morning.
I chose Skyborne as a preference too, and the application has updated to reflect that. Video was about lunchtime Friday, and email about 10.40 this morning.

Hi - I have also been invited for the next stage of assessments with Skyborne but I did not select a preference of flight school.

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

Those who went with Skyborne, continue to hold on hope as the FTEJerez candidates received their assessment day invitations across 48 hours 👍🏻

Hey everyone,

Congrats to everyone invited to the next stage! For those who didn't, whatever you do, don't give up. Use the experience you gained from this to apply it to the next opportunity!

Question for the FTEJerez interviewees, the "what to expect" .pdf from BA states that we will be tested on "Verbal reasoning, Maths and Physics, Numerical reasoning, Numeracy", as well as the group exercise.
Do you think it's going to include cut-e assessments as well?

I confirm It does include cut-e assessments too. Going to be a heavy day i think.

Anyone else in the Skyborne and still waiting camp? Submitted the video Monday 25th, no change on the application either.

I'll hold onto hope until I get an email one way or the other

I can still view them. On the main dashboard it says
My Interviews: To Book:0 To attend: 0 In the Past : 1

Then when I click on it theres the dates I recorded them and a small header saying complete above. I got the same submit button after too.

You got me wondering now, but I’m pretty sure its been sent through. I’d seen you could view the responses again and would’ve clicked the submit button again at some point during the window it was open laat week.
