Fanstop,
Given that your last brush with the Navy began with poor advice from the recruiting office I'd think twice about following Bad Livin's suggestion to start again there. He is right on the mark to suggest caution when anybody says "you can transfer later"!
Why not write to the boss?
Commodore, Naval Aviation
COMNA HQ
ILCHESTER
Somerset
BA22 8HT
Whether the man himself will ever see your letter I don't know but it will certainly be seen by one of his staff who will be an aviator. This should at least mean you get advice from someone who knows what they are talking about.
You should explain your situation including your previous history and simply ask if they are now in the business of recruiting people like you as pilots.
Good luck!
