As long as you meet the fitness test limits (and any future ones if they ever do make it harder like they kept promising...), why not? Its not as if you'd be blocking up the med centre (no eligibility on FTRS - assume the same for RAuxAF?).
I have noticed that the recent FTRS posts seem to be more LC than HC so I wonder if someone is dictating that "just in case...". Certainly a deterrent for me - done enough 'expeditionary' ta very much. Remember the RAF motto - "check-in, not dig-in"
