Jag3 - I suggest you beef up your history of the Fleet Air Arm and the number of Naval Pilots who flew so successfully both in WWI (before the RAF was even invented) and in WWII, including the Battle of Britain.
From a
historical point of view don't forget that:
The Navy have History
The Army have Tradition
but
The RAF have "Habits"!
Go for the Senior Service & you won't regret it.
