Best airline food I had was on FR. The missus made me some grand ham and cheese sambos, wrapped them in tin-foil and they were lovely........

Thought I was in Croke Park!

Well done and I hope you succeed in your chosen career. As this is an aptitude test and not an interview, you can look up some stock tests on the web - they are designed to see whether you have the aptitude to do the job and test your line of reasoning  and ability to problem solve. It's a while since I was actively involved in them, but they are nothing to be afraid of - just try to think your way through what is put in front of you and follow the logic. (You could even be cheeky and e-mail them asking if they have any sample tests............)

Hope it goes well.

Hi Folks.

Just came across this unusual replica of a Hurricane on Victoria Square in Birmingham. It was based on an aluminium sub-frame and covered in foliage. Nice for a change......
