Hi All,
Newbie here. I am intending to apply for the Cathay Cadet Program. I don't want to apply until I am confident that I will pass all exam stages.
On the technical questionnaire, does anyone have a list of questions they typically ask? I have been informed there is a list of roughly 100 questions the technical questionnaire typically circulate through.
Any current online study groups that are open to other members. Keen for a study buddy!
Thanks in advance.

Can anyone give me some advice?
What's the best way to approach studying the 5 chapters of the FAA handbook? Note taking would be too extreme and I was wondering if anyone could suggest a way to go through it efficiently.

Would you happen to be applying for Direct Entry Second Officer? Because the two day assessment you mention is not applicable for people applying for the Ab Initio Cadet Program. My group members and I are doing the group exercise, flight planning exercise, and final interview all on 20 Feb, with nothing else the day before or day after.

Is aptitude test (numerical reasoning)included or in general what kind of test is included in the computer-based test? Also, around how many question will be asked in the technical quiz?
Thanks a lot and good luck to all candidates here.

Did you guys see this? "If you are a Hong Kong Permanent resident you may be eligible to apply with less than 250 hours provided you have an ICAO CPL and MEIR and meet all other Second Officer requirements." Boy. They are really scrapping the bottle of the barrow.

Anyone know for candidates of these 2 streams, will their allowance be withheld for the first 3 years like the ab-initio cadets?
