Hi RG, I think that although yes, the first reply was slightly of target - by and large you are getting an overly hard time.
I joined the RAF straight from school at 16 as (what was back then) A Mech (T) - basically airframe mechanic, with a fast pass to J/T. My English was, and still is, bad! However it did not stop me completing 10years, serving on the front line, and carrying on to get my EASA B1.3 licence with types on the AS350, EC135, B-105 and now starting studying for a CPL(H)
Life in civvy street and the mob is hard, you have two ears and one mouth, use them in that ratio and you'll never go far wrong!
