Just to update, there are no Pilot entries planned before May 2012. whether your ACLO processes pilot only candidates beyond FATs is at their discretion but as AIB only has 12 months validity, even those passing FATs & AIB previously will need to retake AIB after May.
Observers are being processed, but very few entries envisaged.
Thats right sorry he said they were only recruiting for 12 places next year,I tried to remember instead of looking at what I wrote! Sorry again!
