When to apply for sponsorship with airlines
 

Hey everyone.
I am close to my final exams now and I'm considering applying for a sponsorship with an airline. I just have one question thought. When should I apply for the sponsorship? Would it be best to do so before I take my exams, or after?
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ian

Only apply when they advertise....
Generally in Flight International....

IW,

As a fellow Flintshire resident and sponsorship applicant, I can but offer the following information:

1) British Airways are the only airline that recruit ab-initio pilots on a continual basis. Phone them up (number on web page) to get an application form.
2) Most other airlines (British Midlands, Airtours, Air2000, British European....) recruit on a seasonal basis. In my experience, this temds to be in the late summer/autum time of year - keep an eye out in flight international etc aronud then!

Best of luck!!
