Can regular soldiers be 'promoted' to flying after serving in the British Army
Does anybody here know if it is possible to get into the RAF or Army Air Division by joining the regular army an doing it that way. I know it might take a while but that wouldn't be a problem.
I'm Irish but my mother is English so I don't think that would necessarily be a problem. I have checked it out a bit but the fact that I have a record meant it was a No. I know that getting into the army is a bit more flexible in some cases and wondered if there would be a posibility of going that route if things went well there.
I'm 21 now and applied to the Irish Air Corps here and also got turned down. It would be my dream job and I am just looking for some way to make it happen.
Hope I've put this in the right place and it makes sense.
