I’ve watched this video multiple times and I love it. I’m going to use it as my motivation to join the raf as a pilot. I just love that there are different people there caring for other. Keep up the good work guy s❤️
Very cool video , no doubt most are training in USA after fun on the tucs , liked the typhoon coming up to say hi lol . Royal Navy kicks ass in the air
I'm a current air cadet wanting to become a pilot when I'm older, the only concern I have is air sickness. As far as I know I don't get airsick, but I have a phobia of vomit so I worry I would have trouble lol! How are you and the other pilots in that regard? Amazing video by the way
I have to ask, how strict is the medical assessment when you join up? And also can you start your application before sitting A-Levels? I'm sitting mine next year may and my logic is that if I start my application early, then perhaps I could get a slot earlier on.
Does anyone know what are The eyesight requirements for RAF/RN Fast jets? And what A-Level subjects would you recomend for me to do to get in? P.S I was pretty over weight until recently so can it make entry difficult ?
I think it’s 6/12 uncorrected in one eye and both corrected to 6/6 (that’s from memory though so don’t quote me). I’m sure you can find out all the medical stuff required by doing a bit more googling. I’d say you can’t go wrong with maths and physics - certainly makes ground schools easier further down the line and can help with the aptitude tests too. Having said that some guys in training haven’t done either!
Would having a good degree make GCSE and A Level results irrelevant? Asking because I dont have the best GCSEs/A Levels but am studying towards a degree in engineering however.
What is the aptitude test made up of? What type of questions are shown and what is featured in ground school I’m mostly concerned about failing one of those two things
D3RP TV google raf pilot aptitude tests and there’s loads of info on what they contain. Getting in is the tough bit. Once that’s done ground school is nothing to worry about unless you’re lazy. Most of the maths etc required for ground school will be tested during the aptitude tests so if you can pass them ground school is a doddle!
Want to be a FJ pilot for the RAF, getting my PPL next year then signing up. However I have 5 GCSEs but no a levels or degree. If I had a ppl could this balance it out or im I buggered?
Brendan Gibson yes I think there were about 4 times the number of people applying vs places. Search for ‘fast jet performance’ as he has loads of tips for stuff like that
This is the sort of stuff you want to be able to look back on when your old. Well done chaps.

that typhoon forming on at around 5:30 is just epic!
Damn this looks like the best job. How hard is it to get to fast jet training? I can imagine it requires a lot of effort.
Awesome stuff you guys.
Keep up the good work.
Proud of you Hussain
Can't stop watching it 💗 I'm so proud of u 💗✨
Love these course videos 👌

Nice Vid ,I Looked after the Tucano For 8 Years at Linton,It Was Not A fun As This Lot Were Having Though.
ابداعع ي ملازم حسين الله يوفقك انت واخوياك 💜
cracking video awesome
I don’t know if you’ll see this, but how’s it going?
Not sure if you will see this but where will basic training be held as RAF Linton On Ouse is closing?

Jakub Wojasiewicz I’d ask your local AFCO

@@martyn7888 Thanks , also do you have any advice on how to tolerate G-force , I'm a bit paranoid about The centrifuge ...
Jakub Wojasiewicz centrifuge is nothing to worry about if you were overweight! I am and it’s easy 😂

M D if you have a degree you only need Cs at GCSE

Pretty sure you need the a levels
@@martyn7888 ahhhh that’s fun
When you went to uni, did you join a university air squadron? Because that’s the route I’m thinking of taking. Thanks.
Brendan Gibson yes I highly recommend joining one. Loads of free flying and a great social and other activities
M Trev how hard was it to get into the UAS? For example, were there lots of people trying to join. Cheers buddy
Brendan Gibson yes I think there were about 4 times the number of people applying vs places. Search for ‘fast jet performance’ as he has loads of tips for stuff like that
Too much tomfoolery. 265’s video is way better.
Hey any chance on me being able to use any of this footage on my insta page? with credit of course! (@raf_aviation)
Buddha sure!
M Trev thanks!
5:29 what planes are these? Nice video btw 👍
Thanks 👍
They’re RAF Shorts Tucano Mk. 1, and the one that appears at 5:32 is an RAF Typhoon
Could do without the music.
