Dear FJJP and Captain Kirk....
Just read your comments re 'get some time in'; for your information I am on my 7th tour (5 fast jet and 2 QFI), don't assume that everyone on the forum is a disgruntled RAF pilot and that if favourable comments are made that they must be 'new boys in town'. I did my ATPL 4 years ago and then decided to stay on the basis of what some good mates told me about civil flying and my experiences with the CAA and civvy flight schools during licensing. I'm happy with my lot and probably (although not necessarily) have more experience than the pair of you, chill out and be pleased that some of us actually find the RAF rewarding! <img src="cool.gif" border="0">
