fish FAA recruiting qn

Hey guys,

Have returned the initial recruiting questionnaire and am in the process of joing the RNR [first parade night set for the end of the month ]. Am still reading all I can on the RN and FAA but have a couple of queries for you:

1] What would be a typical timescale to progress from the initial questionnaire to the AIB - assuming I'm successful at each stage? I'm carrying about a stone too much in weight that I want/need to lose but am hampered at the moment by enflamed calf muscle tissue picked up by running too far too soon, so need an idea of the time I have to get in shape.

2] What is the special flying award? Have seen it mentioned as a recruiting tool on this site and would jump at the chance of some flight time if its available.

3] If I fail at any stage, what is the minimum wait before trying again? I don't want to dwell on this, but it'd be useful to know.

I've tried the search function but its giving me loads of non-relevant threads to trawl through.

Cheers guys, hope I'm flying Navy some day soon
