View Full Version : Question for RN pilots
If any RN pilots out there could help me out by telling me a bit about
what aircraft they fly
what it's like to fly the aircraft they fly
and how they ended up flying what they do
That'd be great.
Thanks in advance!

Why would you like to know?
Waiting on AIB date.
Reading up etc, just after a bit more info
Hope you don't mind.
Cheers.
I'm not RN but I can probably help you here, B3av. First, the RN has no aircraft to fly, only helicopters and they don't count. They used to have proper aircraft but were deemed to be so cr*p at operating them that they were taken away from them. Second, RN helicopters are rubbish to fly, especially if you aspire to fly proper aircraft. Third, RN pilots ended up flying what they do because they were chopped by the RAF.
Anything else I can help you with? RN sexual habits, perhaps?
