I head back to Cosford tomorrow for my 12 month AV Course.

Yay for inspections, marching, morning musters and bull nights.

Not. :/

Ah, saw your message on MSN this morning but you were gone by that point :p

At least you can feel happy knowing that in 12 months you'll be a real techy with proper pay!

I'd say I feel sorry for you... but you should've joined the right trade :p
 
I joined the RAF to work with Aircraft, enough about that. :p

The pay rise with SACT will be one of the only things that will keep me going lol.

Just been confirmed in a single man room too, up yours 4 man rooms!
 
Good god, has anyone else put together OSPRAY Mk4 yet? I've just put mine together, insane amount of pouches to go with it, and it weighs a tonne. Can see how much money has been invested in it though, looks like a good piece of kit.

Has that got the combat codpeice protector with it?
 
Have you considered the Navy and the RAF? Honestly give them some thought, there are many people I know that are stuck in a service they don't want to be in, and changing once you're in is a big pain in the ass.

Absolutely this!

ToejaMz0r RESEARCH the trades available first. If you go to the AFCO and allow them to push you in a direction they will most certainly push you to where they need to fill their criteria most.

Dammit, I was considering going for Intelligence Officer, but you need GCSE B in English and Maths, yet I only have English Lit: A, English Lang: B and Maths: C, so Maths has messed me over :(

And I have an A-Level equivalent Science Foundation Year, which included maths, with an overall B.

I'm better with Maths nowadays, and could teach myself what I needed, so does anyone know if it's possible to pay a school to sit the examination?

Is IntO actually open to civilians again now? I thought it was just current serving?

Can't you just hide them on inspections? That's what everyone does here :p

A what now??

If you're sat in Lash all your time though you won't need all those pouches.

You ALL should have! :rolleyes: :p

Oh I know this, however, my unit seems to have a huge bull **** factor, so I can see most of the pouches needing to be attached at some point, before we actually take them off when out in Lash lol.
 
With regards to maybe not needing the exact qualifications im gunna have another look tomorrow but otherwise i know what i want to do :) can only say no to my requests at worst :)
