I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

It is his parents not Willie Pete.

Joining the RAF is clearly a step too far for them. Maybe he hopes they would approve his joining the PAF.

Do they think travelling to Pakistan and flying their fast jets is a safe option then ?
More likely Willie hopes they will accept joining the PAF.

Why would any Brit in his right mind want to join the PAF?

Flying under the Radar

I think I know the real name of Willing Pilot, it may be William Donaldson who gained fame for the Henry Root Letters

4 years later and my parents are happy for me to apply to the RAF, after Uni though!

I think they were misunderstood

Good for you my friend. Hope you've prepped for OASC, the very best of British and all that.

Do consider other branches and aircrew trades too, just in case!

Prepping in progress, need to finish uni. However, I need to get my asthma cleared by my doctor as misdiagnosed first!

I don't even have it.
