It's interesting to compare this thread with the Joining the Mil as a Pilot thread. Time after time wannabees who are hoping for a free ATPL are shot down by the old and bold who rightly tell them they are military occifers first, and aircrew second.
Read this thread and it's clear that that some in the RAF see themselves as the uniformed wing of EasyVirgin and not much more. I love the threat "what do you want working aircraft or fit blokes, because we can't do both"...tell that to the Marines
