observer

Hello all, I'm currently trying to decide between an Officer Observer role and an Aircrewmen role and was hoping for just a rough idea of what would probably be best suited. I am currently in the application process for an Observer role and only have my AIB left with my OCD coming up in April...

Hi, I have my AIB coming up and as I delve deeper in my research I am slightly confused as to which helicopters have a role for Observers? Merlin Mk2 - 820 RNAS Merlin Mk4 (CHF) - 846 RNAS, 845 RNAS Wildcat (Maritime Attack) - 825 RNAS Wilcat AH1 (CHF) - 847 RNAS My primary interest is the...

After trawling through threads there seems to be little on role transfers within the navy, and I wanted to know how possible this is? I applied to the RN for pilot and despite passing the aptitude test, was recently offered a space at BRNC for Observer which I have accepted. I wanted to see if...

I know. I shouldn't be asking this question as there are a million threads on it. However I can't find one especially for Observers so just thought I would pop the question. After a bit of chopping and changing I've passed FATS for Observer and have passed AIB with a score of 108. Now obviously...

Good Afternoon all Sorry its a bit of a long one but thank you for the taking the time to read this thread I'm sure this has been an issue for many aircrew hopefuls before me, however I'm just looking for some fresh and sound advice (with the minimum level of bias if possible) from people...

Hi there, I have my Navy SIFT interview in just over a week, so have been researching the Royal Navy and all of the current deployments/equipment. However, while I nearly fully understand the training given at BRNC, the information out there regarding training afterwards is very conflicting. I...

Hi Guys, So - yesterday my "flight" drew our secret santa names, and i pulled out the FLOBS. The aim this year is to insult eachother as much as possible. I was wandering what sort of gifts you think would be offensive yet humorous to an Observer. I did find a book called i wish i were a...
