    Im sitting on 63

    No forms yet? Just wondering if it's 64, 65 and the remaining 66s, or whether they're processing some 63s now.

    Doesn't seem like too many of us are still waiting. Fingers crossed for the next couple of months.

    Waited two months to sit AC from IST pass, a further two months for AC pass e-mail and haven't heard anything since in the past two months. Pretty used to the wait at this stage. Could be worse.

    We got about 6 weeks notice for PCA....the fam date is 2 weeks notice, so you then get 4 weeks to you training up if needed.
    good luck

    So i go on holiday for a week and there's movement for some people.

    If there are any forum members who want to club together to buy me another week in the sun to move things on a bit further again feel more than welcome to get in touch!

    Looks like a bit more of a wait for me being a 62.

    Sent mine back in mid march. Done PCA and medical since then. Have heard nothing. I'm in the same boat as a lot of people. I think the only answer you could be given is "how long is a piece of string" lol it's just a waiting game unfortunately. I know it's not helpful but no one knows. Lots of variables

    Honestly I think most people found it tough going. Air was very dry and a few folk were coughing quite bad after and a few threw up lol!! I wasn't the fastest but I did everything clean so I didn't have to repeat loads of parts. Try to pace yourself, about a minute a lap. Go fast in between each section or obstacle

    Im waiting too..... Im a 62 .... have re applied also. Thinking I will definitely have to do the IST before I even hear anything about vetting and PCA. Hoping theres still spaces left for us low 60's in the last campaign!

    folks, just to give you an idea of timing -- the letters rec'd for pca over last few days are approx 5 weeks after we got ours in the last batch, with the vetting forms arriving about a month after we got ours..... so next vetting letters etc should be "maybe" around start of July, with pca dates around end of august...
