God bless meat pies and video games.

I'm on for assesment day this wednesday coming, I've done plenty of research on the RAAF and ADF in general and my case manager seems fairly confident I won't have any problems, but I've a few questions to ask for those that have already finished their assesment day.

1. How long would a typical assesment day take? (keeping in mind that I've already passed my spec. testing).

2. Would I be asked service specific questions for all my preferences? (eg. RAAF-Pilot 1st, RAN-Pilot 2nd, RAAF- ACO 3rd).

On another note. Yeah, I used to wear orthotics as well when I was younger. I had them in my hiking boots at timbertop (a school I went to) mainly for comfort and to stop getting blisters. DFR still wanted a report on it from the doc I got them from. But I'm pretty sure from what I've heard that you'd be fine as long as you don't have flat feet or are heavily reliant on the orthotics.

Cheers,
