Does anyone the upper age limit for WSO's for serving NCA. I know there is a age limit published somewhere but it seems to be a variable feast.

WSO's for serving NCA
Which is it WSO or WSOp? One is Commissioned and one is NCA.
WSO is Navigator and WSop is the other 3 (ALM/AE/AEOp)
I thought the upper limit for internal transfer was 32, but the age for initial application from civvie street was 26.
Ben there, done that and got chopped!

I still find it very amusing that no one know's
what a wsop is, or does, or can do, or where they are destined for, or what their job expectations are! What a mess... Anyone want my LM brevets when I leave in June?

Definitively- If you are NCA and want go for a commission as a pilot or WSO(n) the age cut off is 33. If you are dead good, you could apply for an age waiver if you reach OASC rather late in your 32nd year or you are 33 exactly. The age limit is your 33rd birthday being on the first day of IOT.
