Wouldn't it be a nice thought though eh?
Here's a question, do the RN still allow some Rotary Wing Pilots to cross over to Fast Jet if they have the right aptitude (if that is even the reason they allow them to cross)??
If they still do, what are the numbers if anyone knows???

P.S. With regards to the question about the Breathing Problem, I couldn't tell you the answer to that. I had my aircrew medical at RAF Cranwell in 1999 and they got very nervous when you mentioned any sort of breathing disorder eg. Hayfever and Asthma. Whether it was a limited medical because it was for a RN Gliding Scholarship I don't no. If you could get in touch with the Central Air Medical Centre at HMS Sultan they might be able to give you some information. As far as I know, once you pass AIB (literally minutes after) you are sent there to have your Aircrew Medical. Am probably wrong about that now because of the time difference since I was last at HMS Sultan.
