U make a good point about being not far up the list.
Also a word of advice, which maybe too late for me but not for other Navy flying wannabes.
They like you as young as possible. I was told that two people with identical scores etc and only one place the youngest would get it!!!! So if you are really keen on pursuing a flying career in the RN, start young.
BTW are you still waiting? and hope you get the letter soon
