When I first applied (back in Nov 2005) I was told about a 'flying start' in service degree scheme, where the training you did for pilot or observer counted towards a foundation degree in 'Naval Studies' iirc. Is this new scheme replacing that, or is this something completely different?

Also, has anyone found any info on whether the curriculum is made up solely of the flying training you would do anyway, or if you would need to complete extra modules?

Finally, as someone who is due to join in Sept as observer, any idea how (or even if I'd be eligible?) I'd enrol for this?
