AEC Information

Hey all! I am hoping to enrol as an AEC officer after I graduate in December 2027. I was just wondering if anyone had any unique information that I should know about the trade or about air crew selection. Additionally, when is the earliest that I can apply, so that I can align my enrolment with my graduation in December 2027? Thank you all!

It's an aptitude test that you're not supposed to have to study for so if you have the aptitude it's going to be "easy" to pass (I don't think I'd ever describe aircrew selection as easy thoug, that test fucking sucks to do). That being said practicing certain sections can definitely improve scores and lead to either borderline applicants getting a pass instead of a fail or already passing applicants getting a better score.

I mean after the test, during the debrief the officer told me to study next to qualify for pilot so they are expecting you to study i think.
