Can't make that either so they said no plans after that date yet and they would contact me when the new sessions for PA started again afterwards which they said would most probably be in September. Two months of hard training ahead of me.

I ask this because we are entering July ...are there still such cases?? or "the invitations" have been made and from now on only the evaluations follow? Would it be appropriate to send an email to FX to ask them for this information or to wait another week? It is possible that some "omission" would have happened? Patience-patience, but untill when?? I'm still waiting for their correspondence few days and then... ...
Thank you in advance and.... Good luck !!

Any news from the people who have started? Hows their training going. Any new concrete info on deployments length etc

shuttle run, push ups and sit ups they tested outside and it was very pleasant.
the beep test was inside, but in my opinion the first 2, 3 levels are easier.
It is common sense, I didn't touch my knees on sit ups and for the first time they gave me a warning but they counted it.

Now a question for those who were invited, when you reply accepting to take part to the PA, do they send you a confirmation mail again that they received it? I send my mail, but I am just anxious.
Best to all!

don't stress yourself, it's pointless. For me didn't look like an exam environment!
They even provide water for the candidates and it will be much much more than 3 min between each exercise.
