JT - you need to ask your recruiting officer to arrange for you to attend a POAC - potential officers' acquaint course.
Culdrose and Yeovilton run them about 8-10 times a year, each. The Yeovilton course runs from Sunday evening to Weds pm, includes four rides in the
dunker, a trip in a
SK Mk4, at least one squadron visit, and not too much death by PowerPoint. And you get to do the bleep test to AIB standards
POACs are not run at Cottesmore.
The recruiting officer should also be able to get you a ship visit if you ask nicely.
