It appears from the information you have provided that the Residency requirement means that you will be too old to commence Pilot Training by the time that the Residence requirement has been satisfied.
If you had contacted the British High Commission in South Africa then the Military Staff could have explained every Requirement to you.
PS
I think you will find that you are incorrect in your belief that you have to be 25 years old to commence Flying Training - I started at 19 years old having completed Initial Officer Training, served in the Gulf, the Caribbean and Europe and had passed the CFS Course as a QFI by the age of 25 years.
