To join a UAS you will become a member of the RAF Volunteer Reserve (RAF(VR)). Membership entitles you to fly in military aircraft and requires that you satisfy age, education and nationality requirements. Such requirements are:

1. Older that 17.5 years on joining and younger than
23.5 years on graduation.
2. An undergraduate with 2 A-levels or equivalent studying for a full-time degree with 2 academic years remaining before graduation.
3. A British National (or dependent territory).
4. Taller than 5'6" (if female) and shorter than 6'2"

There are also various other medical requirements that applicants must satisfy - for more information about these either contact the Squadron or ask at the Freshers Fayre.

I noticed it says you need to be younger than 23.5 years on graduation? Do you think this has not been updated yet since the max age of the airfoce has now gone up to 25 years or??

Also, how does the air squadron work? Does it have relationships with all the forces or just the RAF?

Regards
