Not too old. Apply now though and if you get in don't have to study :-)

Cool!
Hi Peak Tram Driver,
I don't get onto Pprune much any more since I left HK, but I reckon you have the best callsign.
Take a walk down Reclamation Street for me.

747aus, I know of a person over 32 previously who was in the cadet programme so 26 isnt too old. They average around 24-30, if your too young they dont think your mature enough for it anyway.
Im 28 and re applying this year

Hey guys/gals
Age is not really a problem. I got into CX on the DESO program when I turned 35. For the iCadet program I feel age shouldn't be a problem if you under 35. Hey it worked for me.
Good luck

Maturity surely is an important aspect that CX Rec.Team looks for in a candidate , because that maturity will reflect throughout their career at CX but more importantly it is one of the keen qualities you want in a pilot.
But there have been Cadets who start at 18 - 21 !!
