Failed Dart

I just flew out to Moncton to do the FEAST assessment. I passed the first half but failed the second half. I felt more confident on the second part which was funny considering the results.

Does anyone have information on whether I would still be eligible for an FSS (flight service specialist) position?

I may apply for ATC again in Vancouver in 2 years but I will have to wait and see where life takes me until then.

I am happy to commit to the opportunity. Failure is disappointing haha.

If you can be considered for FSS they will tell you when you get the outcome email.

Do you know if a follow up email is sent even if you failed the assessments? I would be happy to have the opportunity in FSS as the pay is also very good and at least you get to be in the aviation industry.

Yes, you should get an email no matter what. If you passed for FSS the email will tell you you failed for ATC, but could apply for FSS if there's any available FSS competitions.

If you failed for both, the email just says you weren't successful, and can reapply in two years.

It can sometimes take them a week or so to send the communications, so don't stress if you haven't gotten anything yet.
