How true is the old saying "many are called but few chosen".

The ADF can get all the applicants it needs and the whole process is sorting out those who have a good chance of making the grade.

Some of the important things they are looking for is leadership and skills to become a good officer. You could be the best flyer in the course and still not make the grade. You will be continually tested and watched for signs of lack of maturity. The ADF can get all the good aircrew it needs, but also needs people who do not spit the dumb, but most importantly can lead.

Some of the remarks I read make me cringe and wonder why you wasted your and the Air forces time going to Tamworth.

Time for some of you to understand that the ADF does not owe you anything.






All the best to those who are really trying

Regards
