Our Shepherds of the Sky - The RSAF's Flying Support Squadrons

PLAB! Was great fun!

FSS officers should go to the ground with the army, hence they could fully understand how we operate...

In term of emergency, support aircraft cant come on time to help us but to collect our corpses at the end of the day

[Rockerheads]

what qualifications do you need to have to be a fighter pilot?

[weirdoyap]

I think must have 5 credits in o lvls and must go into either poly or jc. :)

[Rockerheads]

do you have to be chinese to be a fighter pilot?

[pacfusion]

No. The Air force has one malay pilot. So it will very much depend on your qualifications and some test you have to go through. One test ur ability, the other in a maths test last will be the medical.

[Rockerheads]

what do you have to do in the maths test? any ideas?

[pacfusion]

its a test where do u maths calculation within a given period of time without a calculator. :)

NICE.Got a question,isit possible to be a fighter pilot who wears spectacles for the RSAF?Coz i saw 2 ads abt the RSAF with the fighter pilot wearing spectacles..

[sanbastion]

I'm not from Singapore, but I think it's the same everywhere that you have to have near to perfect vision ... but maybe it's not anymore :D If you cant join because of your eyes there is the option of laser eye surgery which betters your vision, thought there is a slight chance you'd go blind :P

hope that helped

I think there was this Officer by the name of Mark Tan that was the 1st S'porean pilot that wore spectacles, to be allowed to fly. Might be wrong though.
