Hi all, long time reader and first time poster.

I have been invited to HK to interview for the AE SO scheme.


I am studying up at the moment and part of that study is looking into Hong Kong as a place to live. While it seems nice, it is obvious that money is important!

Does anyone have an accurate figure of what you might expect to earn as an SO? Some figures include housing allowance, some don't etc etc.

Any clarification is greatly appreciated!

STAGE 1A - MATHS TEST

Question for those who have completed 1A ..

There was a question that asked you to look at the ISA/altitude chart and the question asked you what the altitude was and said give your answer in thousands (e.g. 42) - what I want to know is did you answer '42' or '42000'?

Answers hugely appreciated !

Your question pretty much answers your question...

For those that have done the 1A assesment, how did you find the level of diffuclty for the technical questionare and the compass test?

I am using Skytest at the moment but I am unsure of what to anticipate for the actual interview as Skytest has a HUGE range of difficulty in terms of maths questions. It even asks physics and chemistry questions

Prerequisites Forms

Good afternoon
Has any body received an email containing the HKCAD Prerequisites Forms and the Medical-in-Confidence Form.
I submitted a week ago and I am still waiting for an answer. Does anybody know how long usually takes to get any answer?

JKI

Is the JKI booklet still being issued by CX for pre-interview prep?

The old one dated February 2000?

Thanks.

I was just wondering if anyone has finished 1b last week and still waiting for the result? as the saying goes, "no news is good news", hope those of us who are still waiting, have passed 1b and allocated into the same group interview

Hi guys,

Currently studying for my initial stage of the application process and am looking into apps/software to help me prepare properly. Have noticed that there are several different ones out there and was wondering if anyone has any experience or knowledge as to which is the best?
