Vienna Airport is the primary operating base. Candidates and crew should plan to be reliably available for reporting there; check current employment terms directly for any commuting or relocation support.

Candidates apply online with the required documents and evidence that they meet the entry criteria. AAA reviews applications and invites suitable applicants to the on-site Basic Qualification Test; scheduling depends on the relevant intake.

The Basic Qualification Test is held on site at AAA and is normally completed in one day; the interview can be scheduled on a second day. The assessment is AON-based and requires accurate work under time pressure across aptitude-test formats. The Adept-15 AON personality test is part of the process and is directly covered by Easyflight Training’s Personality Test for Pilots. Candidates should approach personality questions authentically and use preparation to develop self-awareness rather than rehearsed responses.

Applications are submitted online to EFA. After the eligibility review, selected candidates receive an invitation to the DLR Certificate Cockpit. Waiting times depend on application volume, available courses and the selected route. Candidates who pass continue to the Lufthansa Group assessment and must complete the required aeromedical process before training.

The first stage is the DLR Certificate Cockpit aptitude test, offered in German or English at DLR locations in Hamburg, Milan and Zurich. Successful candidates proceed to the one-day Lufthansa Group assessment at Interpersonal in Hamburg or the SWISS Flight Crew Assessment Center in Zurich, usually according to their application route. It includes psychological exercises, group and interview elements, plus psychomotor tasks. Hamburg preparation commonly focuses on MOZARD with a joystick and the Color Tank Test; Zurich uses the Gubsomat apparatus task with a yoke. Separately, SPHAIR is a Swiss DLR-based screening route for commercial airline, Swiss Air Force jet-pilot and helicopter-pilot applications.

Eurowings has operational bases in Germany and elsewhere in Europe. Commuting possibilities, roster patterns and travel arrangements depend on the employing entity and assigned base; candidates should confirm these details during recruitment.

For Condor CAP, application documents are considered alongside assessment performance. Passing the IP-BQ alone does not guarantee an IP-CQ invitation; above-average results and a strong application improve progression prospects. No fixed waiting time is confirmed in the available information.

Candidates for the Condor Ab-Initio Program complete the IP-BQ (Ab-Initio) at Interpersonal in Hamburg. Condor subsequently considers IP-BQ performance and the submitted application documents when deciding on invitations to the IP-CQ. A successful but merely average IP-BQ result may not be sufficient for progression.
