And watch out for the mighty A Sqn in the mess and their caveman ways

Especially if you can get on the PAS

Don't get me wrong, when doing it its the most important thing in the world ever. Pass out day was definately my proudest moment.

Until i got my aircrew sergeant stripes that is! It's a massive step from the civilian world but it's only a very tiny step in the rest of your life.

Listen to me ...

You don't get given innersoles?? Tight gits!

At Halton we were given them straight away.

Just started on the 29th May eh? Then you'll be excited at the prospect of all us lot (A Sqn) just buggering off. So happy to be out of No. 1 IOT Mess....sorry i mean OACTU Mess (Yeah right... )

Being aircrew isn't easy. But if you want it, like hyperlith said you can get it. I passed out on thursday and its not been easy.

Wish us luck!

After much messing about with security checks and medical reports i'm now told i'm '99.9%' in for September. Waiting 1 report to come back.

Everything is fine, they still need the consultant to confirm the ECG but they can’t see anything wrong with it. He said it’s ...

They're still taking the piss. I'm really losing focus on the whole thing. If they can't be bothered to ring me and keep me updated (Whether it be a case of they're still busy and wait a few more days) then why should i help them out? And the ultimate cheek of it all, after spending all day trying ...

Rung them up for the THIRD time and they said that the president of the medical board is very busy and hasn't had a chance to look yet.

I told her that i'm supposed to be starting in just over 30 days time and for 16 of those days i'm in Sri Lanka.

I said that they need to show some urgency as how ...
