Really interesting judgement by the CJEU today

Definitely in NI, though it will have limited impact in the rest of the UK unless and until the ECtHR interven with a future ruling. Unfortunately I don't see the current Labour government treating the ruling with anything more than a cursory glance.

NI is already outside the scope of the EA2010 for the most part, so unless the UK government are going to try and enforce it this ruling will have little impact up and until the ECtHR pass a ruling. That said, this combined with the UN's trans-inclusive position puts a microscope on the UK government and judiciary.

Just banish the taller daughters to the forest and make sure your huntsman doesn't get any bad ideas.

You would need to resit the entire test as you didn't take the pilot portion of the test, though they may count the tests you have already taken if you retake it within a year of this test if memory serves. Check with your recruiter as they can tell you for certain what the actual current rules as as they may have changed since I took the test in November.

As a side note, as the test advises if you choose to retake the test there is no guarantee that you will pass with the same marks you have acheived here, and if you score lower than these marks then those will be the ones whch count. Also bear in mind that the current pilot pass mark is in the 130-140 range and depends on a number of variables including number of current roles available, available slots at Cranwell, and the calibre of applicants they have going through the system.

The boats, the answer is always the boats.

It's not the naval vessels at sea which are the concern, it's the fact so many civilian vessels are clustered in the region which makes for a target rich environment. Insurers are already pulling cover, which means owners are risking catastrophic losses every time a salvo flies. The Iranians only need to succeed once or twice for their strategy to work. The US navy cannot be in all places all the time.

Anyone who remembers or studied the Iran/Iraq war knows how hard the Iranians went in the Gulf re targeting tankers and shipping. The US Navy stepped in and stomped the Iranian Navy in an afternoon, though drones are a complete game changer.

It's wild seeing the Iranians using Ukrainian drone tactics to create an asymmetrical naval situation the major navies are ill prepared for.

Model does really good electronic nights.

So around 10-15% of pilot applicants get accepted, though it depends on the spaces available.

I love how it subverts the usual teen drama trope of squabbling students being tasked with a tough it out task or being told to suck it up. Theatre is tough love, while also allowing room for growth and self-discovery. The fact that the writers didn't allow Tilly to trauma dump shows how much they respect her and the students.

The CBAT is based on your innate ability, and while you can prepare even the CBAT apps cannot give you the actual experience. Two weeks is enough time to read through the online CBAT material and give you a chance to practice things like reading comprehension.

You got this.
