ChristianR354, good luck in your endeavour and I hope you are selected to become an RAF pilot.

Typhoon is becoming more and more established, with F-35B not far off. On the ME side Voyager and Atlas should be in service by the time you graduate...oh and some helicopters too, although quite what they will all be doing post-NW Frontier is moot.

Good luck with your degree in Hard Sums! Have you considered joining the OTC or URNU? Or perhaps the UAS, although the flying isn't terribly generous these days and the CAA won't allow much of it to count towards a civil licence (except the NPPL).

It's a pity you won't have anything like the opportunities which were available even 15 years ago though. But try to make the most of what's left.....
