I did my aptitude tests and exams at my local flying college the other day,
a pre-requisite along with an interview before they allow you to join any of
their courses. Scored 85% in maths, 77% in physics (I'd long forgotten some
of the theorems and equations that would've been helpful) and I got really
good marks in the computer-based aptitude tests; steadying a constantly
moving cross-hair, audio/visual multi-tasking, etc. (Guess PC flight sims
*are* good for something!) It really gave me a confidence boost and after a
long chat with one of the heli instructors a renewed eagerness to get the
pieces in place to begin training. Next step is the medical and then it's
prepare to put the house on the market!!
