Hi guys,
This is a bit unrelated to flight screening, but I'm just curious whether anybody here has any idea what the process is and how difficult it would be to switch roles later on in a RAAF career?
My reason for asking is that a recent suggestion made by DFR has been to join as an engineer and then look at possibly going for pilot again later on down the track, and I was just wondering how feasible something like this is. I will qualify this suggestion by saying that I'm currently studying aerospace eng, and it is something I'm interested in doing; so I wouldn't be doing it just for the sake of doing it or as a stepping stone to something else. That said, I do still have a desire to be a pilot if the opportunity is still there.
Could anybody provide some insight?
Cheers,
VS
