I remember when I joined the UAS in 81, a girl behind me in the queue was rather incredulous that she was not allowed in. 'Write to your MP' , said the adj. Today women are front line pilots and hold senior posts, so that barrier has gone. Now, when will the RAF be pulled up on its age limits for pilots? Aside of age and fitness for fast jet pilots, why does the RAF not take 30-50 something's for multi engine or rotary pilots? An ageism case can't be too far away surely?
