Special Agent Oso - same here - either our applications have disappeared into the ether or we are part of a select group who are not worth either an interview or a PFO.

Well done Akrapovic and Eagerbeaver1. Can I ask what kind of experience you both have? I think most 3000+ hour FOs have been rejected so I'm wondering how many hours you've got and whether you have any command time?

Good luck at interview!

With 15 years to command they are probably looking at 30's and under (if a command is important to you.)

Marvo - with your command course round the corner, you'd be looking at a £30 Grand pay drop right..?

True Craggenmore! And when I say round the corner, I've nearly finished the sims, just the line training to go ! I trust the desert is treating you well my departed friend.. A wise move me feels.

Good luck to all who remain...

Hi chaps,

Does anyone have any up to date info on what to expect on the assessment day at The Base? Can't see to find much trawling around . . .

Thanks in advance

Hi Brian,

I have an assessment in August for the FO Hold Pool. They were offering dates in June and July also. . . .

Cheers.

B & S, you speak as an insider or outsider looking in?
