Hello, I'm 16 and will be studying A levels next year hopefully. I was just wondering if anyone could answer some questions for me.
I have always been passiontate about aviation and been set on becoming a pilot when I leave school. But I also have been around boats and sailing so I know that I'd suit and enjoy being aboard a ship, recently I've had a growing interest in the RN so I was wondering what the career progression would be like for an F-35 pilot (rotary too) in the future since the 'Warfare Officer' role has caught my eye. I can see myself doing either of these jobs (given that I get into the military) but can't help feeling that I'd be disappointed that I didn't choose the other career. So would it be possible to go from a pilot to navigating the ship or working in the ops room?
Or should I stick with the RAF lol.
Thanks.
