Hello Folks,

First off, apologies for marauding all over an aircrew board with what is essentially a ground crew question but I'm having difficulties getting any clear "insider" information.

I've always been interested in being a Fighter Controller in the RAF, but since childhood I have suffered from Asthma. I was without symptoms from about 17 so thought I could get away with the four year rule and a commission in a ground branch. However in early 2002 the asthma made another one off appearance which has made its way onto my medical records. Since then all symptoms have dissappeared again and I have remained off the meds normally used to treat similar problems.

I'm now 23 and will be four years free again in late 2006, can anyone comment on my chances of getting through the OASC medical for ground branches given my colourful medical history?

Thanks

UB
