For me, 1 x Hornchurch and 3 x Biggin Hill. On one occasion the Barman in the Candidates' Mess said "Hello, Sir, back again?". And at interview, with a fat file on the desk in front of him, Sir said "Hello Mr. MPN11, I see you've been here before ...". Finally made it into the system, and managed 30 years [albeit non-aircrew].
Persistence and determination.
Good luck to the OP. It's not a bad life!
