Pelikanpete,
You should be posting on the wannabees forum. The fact that you were in the army has no relevence to your current aviation credentials or adds nothing to your understanding of post service prospects for military pilots. Get yourself on to wannabes so you can drip with the others who have dropped 50k on becoming a pilot. This forum is for military pilots to bask in self pity undisturbed by uninformed punters. Why did you not join the AAC anyway?
