Frequently Asked Questions
What makes your training different? with my pilot interview - what should I do?
Two things. First, it’s genuinely human-led – every lesson is developed and delivered by Wingman Andrew, a current airline pilot and experienced recruiter, never AI or generic content. Second, it’s built on our ‘Techniques Not Tip Offs’ approach: rather than trying to guess a specific airline’s questions, you learn transferable techniques that work for any interview or group exercise, anywhere in the world. You’re learning the process from someone who has sat on both sides of the table.
How will I receive my eBook?
Once your purchase is complete, your eBook is delivered to your email as a PDF within 24 hours. You can then start reading on your phone, tablet or computer. Please note the eBooks are provided as non-printable, non-editable PDFs for your personal use.
Which eBook is right for me?
It depends on which stage you’re preparing for. Our Interview and Group Ex eBook focuses on the assessment phases – frameworks, techniques, example answers and a question bank to practise with. Our Application eBook covers your pilot CV and covering letter. If you’re preparing for the whole selection process, the Bundle combines both and saves you money. And if you’d like personal, one-to-one support alongside the self-study, our coaching and Academy courses are there to take you further.
I need help with my pilot interview - what should I do?
You’re in the right place. Whether you’re applying for a cadetship, a flight school place, or a sponsored or scholarship scheme, Flight School Wingman offers a wide range of services to support you through your interview.
A good first step is to understand that a pilot interview isn’t just about answering questions – it’s about evidencing the specific competencies selection panels are assessing. We’ll show you how to recognise which competency each question is really targeting, and how to structure your answers so you’re actively providing the panel with clear, concrete evidence of it – drawn from your own experiences. From there, you can choose the format that suits you best.
Our Wingman Academy lets you learn online and at your own pace through structured video lessons, while our one-to-one coaching (available in person or online) gives you bespoke, personal support focused on exactly where you need it. Every session is human-led and delivered by an experienced pilot who’s been through selection themselves, so you’re preparing with someone who truly understands what panels are looking for. Whatever your interview involves, we’ll help you walk in confident, prepared and ready to give your best.
What's the difference between the online course and one-to-one coaching?
Both training pathways work well – it comes down to how you prefer to learn. The Academy course lets you work through everything online, at your own pace, and revisit lessons whenever you need. One-to-one coaching gives you bespoke, personal support focused on exactly where you need it, available online or in person. Many pilots use the online course to build a solid foundation, then add coaching to sharpen specific areas before the big day.
