Being a WSOp...

[radbrit]

Hi All,

I've recently joined the RAF as a WSOp, passed out at Halton and am currently on hold until I go to Cranwell.

I have been thinking about my future career, and am aiming toward the crewman side of things (I know I don't get much say in the matter! - there's always hope). I'm stuck between aiming for fixed wing or rotary, and was wondering if anyone could tell me the pro's and con's of the job from their point of view. For fixed wing Herc's interest me, and I really don't know about rotary (Merlin?).

Like I said, I know I'm told where I'm going, but an insight would be nice as we really don't get told that much. Also, if anyone out there is acoustic/electronic etc, some info about your job would be good too?

Thanks.

PS: I'll only be replying at weekends!
