Merits then of SAAF training?

If the contracts are worth in excess of 1mil then is the type of training worth it in the end. And judging by the last thread about military training being the be all and end all, is a young person who would apply for this training and enter into it really making the right decisions.Surely a pilot wants to stay in the air, no doubt. Now of hearing that there is not much flying taking place then the question is why join in the first place.

Regardless as things seem to be, there are however still youngsters despritely trying to join the SAAF as Pupil Pilots.

As a comparison between SAA and the SAAF young pilot training programmes, which has most success rate? I wonder....
In terms of training, which would you join as a prospective student.
Now for the sake of our senario lets just say that race be kept out of this one. Which would you choose?
