I joined the RAF in 1977 and took a CAA Class One in 1994. In 2000 I was permanently grounded by the RAF. The CAA allowed me to do an Extended Renewal last year and now I have a JAA Restricted Class One "As, or with Co-pilot". I wish you the best of luck with the RAF (I had a wonderful time and the experience will stand you in good stead for civvy street) but the moral from my tale is do a Class One as soon as you can afford to do it. You cannot be issued with a Restricted Class One on initial application, and from my own experience you don't know what's around the corner in life.
