  • I'm kind of nervous about this, could anyone give me some tips?

  • call me a cynic but i think a lot of that is scripted. The RAF looks for a certain amount of individuality in its officers, not mindless automatons!

  • Can anybody give me some tips on good questions to ask?

  • @210482fmj most likely yes, not sure though, I know that you get weapon training in case you have to eject

  • Could anybody tell me what the minimum for functional reach is please?

  • are pilots still be required to fight with ground troops if required or if you are just a standby back up pilot e.t.c. Airplane in wars often get grounded for sometimes long periods or even totally written off.

  • @blondebrit100 Sure, find an aviation aptitude book and study it. Learn how to multitask, a lot of the tests involved multitasking, spatial reasoning, memory and hand eye coordination.

    I remember it lasted 6hrs and there were minitests focusing on a different skill. The first test you held a joystick and had to keep the dot in the crosshairs. Then the controls would switch to opposite. Then you also have to use a foot pedal as well. Also speed distance time questions were included.

  • @1sick93 Thankyou very much i appreciate your help.

    Do you have any advice about preparing for them and then advice for taking them?

  • @blondebrit100 Yes, back in 2006, I was going for Flight Observer in the Navy Fleet Air Arm. I failed it miserably. You can get aviation aptitude revision books that will help. i just didn't have what it takes. I'm currently working hard to get my weight down to join the U.S. Army. If you have any questions let me know.

  • @1sick93 Have you taken them

  • @blondebrit100 the aptitude tests were solid

  • I am going for pilot in a couple of Years

    And from watching this I am shitting myself!!!
