When i spoke to Manchester AFCO last week, they said they hadn't heard anything about a swimming test at OASC level? - this was the OC !

Any official line on this ?

I never had much ruck with the quality of the uniform that was issued. A bit of maintance and it was as good as damit. And when I got a bit older and started work I managed to purchase a few bits and bobs. What p***ed me off was the stupid badges they made us wear. The cadet gliding wings looked ...

I have now sat the aptitude test twice. Once last month and the first 6 years ago. Apparently, the test results were (quote) "quite strong", and clear all the way upto pilot.

My question: If I go back for a second attempt at entry, will I sit the tests again ? (My first visit 6 years ago was for a ...

If you don't mind me asking, what did you give as your outside work/college/uni activities?
ie. what do you do in your spare time.

Your time in the ATC will help you no end. You should now know what to expect, but dont fall ino the trap of knowing it all.

You could be put in charge of a flight, as you can help others with bulling shoes and ironing. You'd be surprised how many people can't even do the basic things. Don't be put ...

If you are goin on PGAC, you'd best give it 100% effort because most of the technical trades are now closed for recruiting. They are likely to remain closed for some time. :o

What's all this about then. Has the RAF recruited too many for this FY ...

Nah.

Sorry, just joking

Cheers for that Biggles1211.

I spoke to the careers office on Friday. They are trying to arrange 2 visits for me at Linton as both my choices are based there, and near to me (Provost (P&SS North) and Flt Ops)

I did start the ball rolling myself, speaking to the Station Community Relations Officer ...

You would have probably already heard if thee was a UAS operating on your campus. Give these guys and girls a shot on google and see what you can find.

Otherwise carry on as normal, and apply for the RAF when you finihs your studies.

RAF only caters for pilots. Pah!
