Hi again,

I'd imagine that, say you applied for Pilot and didn't cut the mustard at OASC, they will tell you to come back in a years time and try again, or maybe offer you other Officer/Aircrew roles available to you with a lower aptitude score required, i.e Admin/Supply.
They won't offer you ...

Hi,

Doesn't sound like you've been to the careers office but I might be wrong. This would be your best starting point by far. They will give you practice questions for the aptitude test, and an overview of what the role is about. It's worth phoning around and bases for a visit to an Air Traffic ...

If you only have to do that small number what is the point anyway?

PJFT - Key word being TEST. You'd be surprised how unfit some people actually are. Because the levels are so low, doesn't mean you have to stop there.

Search on here for fitness tips, or google.

Personally, I'd save money up before going in if you can, or at least be debt free, it is hard for some people starting off on the basic salary, although you may not think so.

Hi,

You can do the swim in any front stroke.

Yeah looks pretty good and what Chris has given you there is spot on. I did this, or thereabouts, prior to Halton and met the standards with ease. Try combining some hill reps. i.e. steep hill about 50metres and sprint up, jog down, repeat say 5 times.

Also ensure that you do RAF standard press ...
