Thumbs up thumbs up

If you have a choice ; personally I'd say go for the RAF route, training par excellence bar none (IMHO) - Before I fly into a flak barrage (it's on the radar already !!!) you will of course also receive excellent training going for a PPL & you may even be lucky enough to get an ex Mil' instructor, just (IMHO) that if you go for the RAF route you'll have a wider choice of kit to operate & at more extremes unless you have strong feelings about being shot at, or operating live weapon systems in theatre.
