Dear All,
I was hoping that those of you who have become professional pilots could advise me and give your opinions on the best way to gaining a career in the flying world.
Although I do not need glasses to fly or drive, and pass the annual RAF instructors medical, they have told me that my eyesight is not perfect enough for me to join the service as a professional military pilot.
I am twenty years old and currently a Grade 2 pilot at RAF 635 VGS, flying the Grob 109B Vigilant, and am unsure of what to do next.
I appreciate any help and advice you could provide.
Many Thanks
Samantha
