RAAF Lifestyle, Flying

Gday,

I am a high school student considering a career as a Pilot in the RAAF. I have researched the commercial sector, but I have not been able to find any concrete info on the RAAF. I was wondering:
  • Approx how many hours pw would actually be spent "flying"
  • How is the lifestyle?
  • Is there a time consuming prep b4 a flight?
  • How often would you transfer types, or would you stay on one type - say C17 for a number of years?
  • Any other info on RAAF life would be appreciated.
It is a massive commitment - now a 14.5 yrs ROSO thru ADFA. Post or PM is great.

Cheers.
