I’ve got my presentation for my raf 6th form scholarship in a few days and was just wondering, do i need to go in a shirt and tie?
also, in roughly how much detail do i need to revise for the interview. Do i need to know the specs of every plane to fly in the raf or wont i need much.
Also if i pass this interview and get the 6th form scholarship will i still need to do my raf final interview because in my booklet it says that if you get the scholarship then i’m signed up for the raf as soon as i’m old enough.
I’m 16 and i’m going for pilot
You only have one chance to make a good impression, so a shirt and tie would be appropriate.
How much do you know about the history of the RAF, you should know something about its history,like The RAF’s role in the Battle of Britain.. How the Spitfire and Hurricane played a vital role along with the valiant pilots who flew them.
Since this is the modern RAF you are interested in joining, know some info about where the RAF deploys and the aircraft that they currently fly, like the Tornado GR1(GR4),GR1A,
1B, F3 etc. and what there combat roles are.
It would be good to be familiar with support aircraft as well.
My advice et a hold of a copy of Jane’s All the Worlds Fighting Aircraft. Any Janes book would be a great reference.
(its a British publication)
I grew up around aviation as a kid, I’ve been involved with it all of my life..I decided to be an Air Traffic Controller instead of a PIlot, but I always wanted to fly. So my advice.. Work hard, stay in school, follow your dreams.
Good Luck.
BTW, good job for saving your skin.
