More thoughts on this coming soon. Could the wind be changing for prospective helicopter pilots as @bristowgroup offer a fully sponsored SAR pilot cadet programme in the U.K.?

They are for aspiring pilots of both genders aged 14 and above with no upper age limit. Keep an eye on our social media and website next week for details and how to apply!

If I could speak to the licensing officer I’m sure that would be the case. Alas, they do not speak to the public.
Would be awesome if there was a process that actually matched the requirement. To the casual observer it looks a lot like incompetence!
Thanks Steph. Is there a reference for that at all? Google comes up blank. Getting license numbers for my military signatories will be interesting. They don’t have them!
The @UK_CAA licensing officer is demanding to see a logbook cover sheet to verify a license application. My military log book does not have a cover sheet and neither the examiner nor the pre-screening officer knows what a cover sheet is. 🙄
Does anybody in the U.K. know of a @Beechcraft Bonanza available for dry hire for filming? By far the best platform for it but we can’t seem to find one. G reg preferred!
How can you tell @TomCruise is a true aviator? Lands in a family garden and takes the kids flying in his Squirrel helicopter. No better buzz than introducing flying to people - hopefully they’ll be inspired. google.co.uk/amp/s/www.mirro…
It’s great to see someone who has spent their career in aviation and is now setting the ethos of the next generation, who still gets that buzz. So important.

It’s not easy but it is possible. My advice would be to apply for every scholarship/sponsorship you can. This was the experience of our Commercial Aviation Editor - getintoflying.com/flying-tra…
