I'm sorry Fuzz but I'm still not convinced. Quadruple A at A-level is very impressive, (even considering the sniggering from society about the loss of the 'Gold standard').
Dedicated CCF member?... fine. Gliding scholarship?.... good stuff.
But these are mere small steps in the right direction. Do you seem to think this makes you instantly qualified to pitch up to flying training? I still don't see how you can suggest that:
1. The AFCO should have been more proactive in recruiting you.
2. The RAF should change its recruiting strategy.
From my previous post you can see we don't need to recruit pilots at all, the job sells itself to thousands of motivated keen-as-mustard teenagers who dream about military flying and (in the RAF's case) being an officer.... and only a few of these kids make it!
