Airmen Aircrew Selection

I'm currently researching joining up as a WSOp. What appears to be an issue is that I'm 24 and have 2 A levels and the careers people don't understand that I'm not interested in being either an Officer or a WSO Nav for reasons that I've learnt from speaking to people who are already AEOps.

Am I turning down a good offer when they say I could get a commision and become a nav? I'm assuming that the OASC selection standards are the same for both officer and airman aircrew?

No doubt if I ever get to Cranwell the first question will be "you have 2 A levels why don't you want to apply for navigator?" How would I answer that?


Not looking for specific answers, just things to get me thinking.
