I am afraid to say that I have already tried this and I hope upon hope that you have more success than I achieved. I contacted the commons through many routes on a wide range of occasions and managed multiple responses including a letters from one of the heads of the CAA explaining what was required and how to go about training for the ATPLf to a letter basically saing that 'the sought after route for commercial flying is through the RAF'....Brilliant!!!
On a serious note if you need copies of my letters PM me and I will forward them on to you, future pilots need all the help they can get!
