fats

Hello, I took my FAT's tests around 2 years ago, and narrowly missed out on passing as a Pilot (and Observer). I have been invited back and want to prepare myself as much as possible. Looking back at my score sheet, the only areas I really failed on were: Sensory Motor Apparatus test (keeping...

Hi all, I am soon to be taking my FATs for Aircrewman and I’ve read all the posts on here to death but thought I’d try and get some more recent info if anybody has experienced the dreaded FATs recently? Or is soon to! I’ve been brushing up on my SDT and mental arithmetic. Can anyone give me an...

Hi all, struggling to find a definitive answer to this, maybe someone could help.. What is a good score for pilot on the FATs. I have a score of 113 (pass being 112). Is this good enough for AIB and to get selected as a pilot (the RAF take people with much higher scores) or should I retake with...

Hi folks, I've recently just sat my FAT's for the Royal Navy with the aim of Pilot but unfortunately just failed. My pilot score was 106 with the pass mark being 112. The question I have is how close was I to actually passing? Is 6 marks a million miles away or did I just fail by a whisker...

I am hopefully going to have a AIB in the near future for the role of Observer, does anyone have a copy of the training pipeline that is up to date (I only have one from 2015) Thanks in advance!

I am currently in the application process to be an Aircrew Officer. I have my FATS very soon and if all goes to plan my AIB after that. However, I was informed by my ACLO that the selection board for Aircrew is at the start of Febuary for the May intake. As I will most likely be trying for...

Good Afternoon all Sorry its a bit of a long one but thank you for the taking the time to read this thread I'm sure this has been an issue for many aircrew hopefuls before me, however I'm just looking for some fresh and sound advice (with the minimum level of bias if possible) from people...

I recently failed my FATs to become a Pilot. My second choice has always been becoming a Hydrographic Officer but I would like to see what the day to day work is like before signing up. Does anyone know if there is a chance to visit the Hydrographic Office for a couple of days to see/if anyone...

Hey guys, I sat my FATs last month passing for pilot (with a score of 120) and for ATC (dunno the score) but I failed the observer section (scoring 102). I didn't know if failing for observer could create issues for pilot selection: the Naval officer at Cranwell, who knew I was applying for...

As someone who's been awarded one of the Scholarship awards for this year, I thought it'd be a good idea to give an overview of the award and what the application process entails. I know from my own experiences and chatting to others that information on the award is scarce and it may be helpful...
