Getting the most from Ground School

I still remember the day I got accepted to L3Harris. The excitement of getting that email offering you a place and then getting your start date is unmatched. Before you know it, you’ll be starting your course, head down studying for your exams. There is little time for you to stop and breathe as it is a whirlwind which goes by so quickly. And then, before you know it, you’ve finished. It has now been 2 months since I left ground school, and it has given me time to reflect on my time there and what I wish I could have told myself before I started.

Life as a Wizz Air cadet

Training to be a pilot is hard work. There is no denying it and I would be lying if I said I haven’t faced any challenges on this course, however if all goes to plan, by early 2020 I’ll be fulfilling my childhood dream of flying the Airbus A320/321 in the bright pink of one of Europe’s fastest growing Low Cost Airlines: Wizz Air.

Here is my story that eventually led me to my first commercially operated flight.
