Pilotsā€™ biggest regret is not doing a SIM practice and that goes for Cadet Pilots.
Our SIM partners will prepare you for every aspect of your airline SIM assessment.

Important Note: not all airlines require cadet candidates to undergo a SIM test. Often they will require you do undertake a ‘hands-on’ Aptitude test such as WOMBAT, PILAPT or COMPASS.Ā  Ask us for more information and about how to prepare for aptitude tests info@pinstripesolutions.com
