Thanks Guys
Charlie its not about being homesick, its more of just how much of a big move it is when its not even a job. Say if you leave UNI at 22/23 would that not mean that youv'e only got one stab at going for pilot, but you do have a chance of WSO or FC which are my two other preferences.
3.14-when you say you were a bit young what do you mean and how did it affect you for training etc.
BTW what does the RAF prefer, to be honest it wouldn't bother me not going to UNI as its something which I could definitely live without but the appeal is obviously the degree, the good time and maybe if it does grow you up in some ways. And does the
OTC take into consideration a persons RAF ambition and does it cater for you because its an officer training corp and not an army one-seems that NI does have an OTC thank god.
One last point, is there many RAF aircrew from NI, its just you never really hear from any and I only have heard of one harrier squadron leader from hear whos dad was my PE teacher.
Thanks Guys and hope you can reply with some good advice
