Rusty,
I, along with many others, have read your many posts with interest. Indeed, I have responded to some, with the best advice I could muster from 14 yrs service. However, you don't seem to be listening very hard. The RAF needs pilots, and yes, some of our equipment is in need of replacement. But the thing that will not change, is the type of person who gets near that equipment. You are clearly keen as mustard, and willing to " sell your soul " to serve, but this ( as another respondant said also) will not do, alone. You really need some time to grow up a little, because I'm afraid at the momment old chap, Cranwell OASC may be as far as you get. The sad thing is, that a bad experience at OASC may dent your enthusiasm, or worse, leave a record on file there, which has an impact on future visits. Please listen to some "old hands" and take your time.
Jackino,
You speak on many threads with a high level of confidence, although I detect a lack of real hands on experience, am I right? If so, please stop trying to influence heavily youngsters who, know or have experienced, even less than you. Thanks
