If you had passed the aptitude tests (as they did) you would have got in with those qualifications
Give over, they were never going to fail the aptitude tests or any other 'tests' that were put in front of them.
...you would have got in with those qualifications - I did with far less
I'm guessing from your 'crab' moniker that you are (former) RAF? You were really selected for RAF officer/air crew selection with "far less" than two very poor A-levels (one of which was in art)? If that's true I take my hat off to you, but can only assume that you joined at a time when pilot spots weren't at quite the premium they were when the HRHs signed up.
Charles already had his PPL(A) and flew himself to Cranwell for RAF jet training.
Does everyone who has a PPL(A) get to fly themselves to Cranwell for RAF jet training? Perhaps
that should have been my way in...
