Begging your pardon TheShadow,

May I firstly ask in what years you gained such success? Flight training alone now takes 18 months for any RAAF or Navy pilot, Army takes at least 9 months after officer training.

Secondly, may I add that this thread is not about "beating" any records but about people who aspire to being military pilots discussing the process as they tread the sometimes vague and unknown road to that ultimate goal.

I did not post to brag but to provide some insight into just how long that process may now take in the 21st century.

Cheers mate.
