I got my second interview results last week and streamed IFR (stated slight preference for VFR in the interview), hope to see some of you next year if I get offered a course.
I do have some thinking to do now since I'd be passing up a pretty decent (but relatively tame) career opportunity. It definitely doesn't excite me as much as the chance to give ATC a shot, though.

Did anyone else get an FSS offer in the last 2 weeks? I was streamed VFR but got (and took) an FSS offer.

When did you get your FSS offer? When does the FSS course start?

Anyone receive a VFR offer???

I got the call on July 5, and the actual paperwork on the 12th, Course starts early September.

I got a call for VFR in November - was not expecting one this soon and am pretty poleaxed too.

When did you receive the call for VFR?

PM'ed you

Anybody from the July 10/11 assessment want to say how their assessment went? I thought it was pretty simple besides the audio portion and got the green light on Monday.

I was in the July 10th assessment.

I don't know about simple, for me it was a mix. Some of the parts I finished with minutes to spare and others I'd be a few questions short (the very first test I made it maybe 2/3 through). The audio section was as challenging as everyone said it would be, I only managed to get 10-11 questions answered by the time I reached the end of the question set. The worst part for me was that the AC was broken and didn't kick in until the QA section, it was toasty in there.

As for results I got the green light on Monday 23rd and the next day I recieved a call to schedule the phone interview.

It's been two week since my In person interview; I'm like a maniac checking every 30 minutes to see if the results shows up!!! The waiting is killing me!

I don't know about others but it took about 4 weeks for my light.

Guys,

I just had my reply. I was red lighted unfortunately. I think I did well in the overall in the interview, I think my chances were reduced because I only applied for IFR. I'm older and I've been running around a lot, I couldn't afford another 10 or 15 years living in minor cities. I had just 1 shot, apparently was a close call but not close enough.

Oh man Legolas, sorry to hear that mate. At least now you can relax, focus on other things fully and who knows, in a year you might want it bad enough to go through the whole crazy process again! Best of luck going forward.

Can't express how awesome it is that yegmagpie and pipsqueak got offered a course so quickly! We were in the same applicant pool and I juust got my green light (streamed IFR) today. Congrats guys!

Congrats on your green light, Ghonosyphaids! I think we all just missed the IFR class for fall in terms of timing. Also sorry to hear that you redlighted Legolas.

Thanks! Looks like I'll be joining you for VFR courses in November.
Too bad we missed IFR, but certainly not worth waiting for a maybe in the spring.

Hey guys
So glad I found this forum. I just applied at NAV Can 2 days ago. Took the online assessment yesterday and received a green light. Does anyone know when there will be an in-person session? Also - does everyone actually finish all 30 questions in 8 min?

Well the last assessment was in July so you probably have around a three month wait. As for the assessment, if you weren’t able to finish those 30 questions im eight minutes you should really practice questions like that as there’s much more time pressure in the real assessment

Anyone waiting for the in-person assessment? Wondering when the next one will be.
