Is the Fleet Air Arm flied for Bankruptcy last Fall?

I thought that the entire fleet of air planes have been sold to the Chinese.

[ShootySloth]

yes for certain pilot jobs you need 20/20 vision, usually these are for fixed wing aircraft , I know for a fact that in the RN they allow people to be a pilot/observer/aircrewmen if your vision is not perfect but it does have to pass a certain test. hope this helps.

[SheepJumpFish]

Not sure about the navy but in the Army Air Corps you can be a pilot with glasses even if you have them before you start training.

[SheepJumpFish]

In the army air corps if your vision can be corrected to 20/20 with glasses you can be a pilot, the raf won't let you but if it deteriorates then they will keep you, not totally sure about the FAA

[tshirtandties]

i hate wearing glasses,i wonder if they let you for door gunner on the lynx's?

[awg1086]

you can't join as aircrew if you don't have superb vision. If it deteriorates after you've got your wings, they'd rather keep you than lose the £millions they invested in your training.
