PGA - Unless your my freind from work (!) then there are a few people that havent heard anything yet. Strangely, with the same experience level as me.

Since people have been hearing randomly across the last few days, I wouldn't give up hope just yet. I certainly dont think that they are informing people in one hit, but seems people are hearing over the course of a few days.

Hang in there.

Oh, does anyone know in what form the interview takes? I believe from some others that its a fairly relaxed chat with some technical questions (although nothing too scary) thrown in for good measure. Can anyone confirm this?

My experience level is around the 1000 hour mark, most of which is on heavy turboprobs.

Cheers,

Got a no

I had my answer last week, saying thanks but no thanks- But we'll keep you on file for 12 months, just in case. So fingers crossed! My friends that applied all have about the experience as me (About 2000Hours, 1500Hours turboprop MTOW greater than 20t) We all got the same reply.

I missed the early interviews, could somebody who got the E mail on the 25th and booked a slot straight away tell me what the first available date was?

Just trying to figure how many are in front of me !!

Hi,
I got the good news on the 25th I booked my interview today 29th for Wednesday 13 Sept 1400hrs, this was the first available slot. There was a list of times and dates only from the 13 Sept onwards. I hope this helps.

Heard on the 25th also, booked my interview slot for late August. But, the first time I checked (soon after I received the good news!) the first interview slot was on the first few days of August - something like the 3rd. Cant remember exactly. When I actually booked the interview, the next day, virtually the whole of August was gone, only leaving September. Not sure what the situation is now though.

Cheers,
BB

Tubbs,

I have not heard anything from them either. How long do you think we should leave it before contacting them?

Also haven't heard anyhthing either way. Suspect they are either:

a. Cherry picking or.

b. Wading through a long list, slowly.

Hopefully, no news is good news!
