Sorry
buzzc152, I have to correct you. While you are quite correct in that an RAF pilot is, at least theoretically, an officer first and a pilot second, as a recruiter I want a candidate that wants to fly above all else. The bloody hard work required for the three years or so that it takes to train a pilot mitigates against someone who would be quite happy being on the ground doing something else.
BEags is quite right: 'pilot or nothing' is the way to go.
PS. Avoid those VC10 thingies like the plague. Some very unsavoury characters inhabit their many dark shadows
