Not sure of the set up of the AEF's but I would think that as he is a serving WO, he could be supernumerary on the AEF and therefore would fly under that banner with a suitable work up by the QFI's? Going back to the VGS Vigilant system, staff wishing to join that hold a ppl or a service qualified pilot have their required flying hours reduced to reach a Grade 1. Last I remember it was 5 hrs before it could be awarded as apposed 50hrs for someone starting from scratch.
