Additional information

Say for instance I’m at university until June 2026 and I get accepted into the speedbird program that starts in January, can I delay my entry until next year? And if I turn the offer down this year will they allow me to enter next year? Thanks.

Hi.

Thank you for your question.

If you were successful this year you could not defer the course if you turned down the offered date. While you can request a later date, we cannot guarantee this would be an option. This application would count as one of your limited attempts towards the Speedbird Pilot Academy applications.

I hope that helps your decision.

Best wishes

Kate
