...also, you don't need any quals to be an AAC pilot becoming a Sgt pilot after serving due 'apprenticeship' in any other trade and fulfilling the basic requirements. These include being a L/Cpl recommended for promotion to Cpl and passing pilot selection and aircrew medical. You cannot be a thicky either path you take. Incidently, many Cpls/Sgts have won best examination results for their pilots cse!!
