further consideration

I was in exactly the same situation in March this year, got through OASC then was 'evaluated' in a 'Selection Meeting' in May. Needless to say I didn't get in which has turned out well for me now, but at the time I was gutted.

I've heard all sorts but mainly;
they're taking about the top <1% of pilot applicants,
they're cutting 8,000 jobs RAF-wide,
pilots fresh out of IOT have holds between 6-12 months,
some FJ pilots are getting though training then being offered redundency.

Just a few things, but worth consideration none-the-less.

I wish you all the best.
