Pilot Aptitude Testing

Air Combat Centre conducts various pilot aptitude testing modules in Sydney for pre-screening, as well as testing similar to that used by the ADF (used by some airlines) for aircrew testing and selection. Results are available on the day of testing. This can be done either separately, or before or after the Get Your Wings program. Contact Air Combat Centre to book a testing date or for more information on pilot aptitude testing options.
